Hi all. I had this question in vcl.components.using already, but
got no answer. Is there anyone who can help me with this simple
question?

How do I get Greek characters into a TEdit or TLabel? I have set
the Font's Charset to GREEK_CHARSET and the font to Arial. In
Window's charmap.exe I can see the greek chars in Arial font,
hence they are installed. Than I tried to copy chars from that
program to my TEdit's Text property, but got only question marks
and stuff. I also wonder how to put chars programatically into
the properties (e.g. char 0x03a9 which is the Ohm sign).

That makes two questions:
  How do I get greek characters into a control at design time?
  How do I get greek characters into a control at run time?

I am using BCB5 on Win NT with language setting German.
