Kenneth, I am running WinXP, and I can cut and paste unicode characters fine in and out of Notepad.
Also, I often can type them directly used ALT+keypad (using the character's decimal unicode number - not its hexadecimal one, obviously)

I'm wondering if this is a Windows configuration issue.

Have you tried going Start > Control Panel > Regional and Language Options, and checking that on the Languages tab,
you have "Supplemental language support" enabled (both checkboxes)
and if you click "Details" in the "Text services and input languages" panel , (which lauches its own Text Services and Input Languages" dialog, on the Advanced Tab there, you have "Extend support of advanced text services to all programs" checked?

Basically I suspect what these Windows settings to is "turn on/off unicode support for most programs and the windows clipboard"
