General comment that is probably obvious at this point.  Borland Builder VCL
does NOT support Unicode.  That means ANY language that is rendered as
Unicode with require the same steps being discussed here, not just Chinese.

Too bad for all of us multilanguage developers.  However, there is hope.
There are many talented developers with toolkits and components to
facilitate this process.  Search the www for "internationalization".  You
may find what you need.
