Karl, 
I don't have anyway to test this (unless you can point me to a
commonly available unicode listbox?), but I wonder how this might
work?


as I said already, the garbled text "¸îA`" is typically for an owner
drawn listbox, and I don't know any (common valid) method to get the
real text.


Yeah, I hear ya there.  It all seemed to get confused when the references to
a "string of question marks" came out.  If it's owner-drawn, he's probably
hosed.

Is it possible to convert the garbled text in a function, comparing the English output and the garbled text, assuming someone could figure out how to write the decoding function?
