Unicode

[smuehlfeld]

Hi,

I want to create a small tool with Visual Basic 6, with which I can input and output data in unicode-format.
But I don't know, how. For example, I have a textbox. And I want input in this textbox e.g. cyrillic letters, but it doesn't function.

Please help me.
Thanks

Sascha

Hi Curt,

I tried it with the strconv-statement, but it doesn't function.
Here is a part of the code :

Do Until Test_1_Tab.EOF
T1 = StrConv(Test_1_Tab!Name, vbUnicode)
List1.AddItem (T1)
Test_1_Tab.MoveNext
Loop

I have a database with unicode-data, and I want to illustrate it in a listbox.

Please help me. It's urgent.
