Hi,
I think many people have wondered if you can display Unicode characters on
VCL components.
My answer is (I could be wrong) NO.

Try this:
(I'm on Win2000)
Make a TEdit.

Copy some weird(Chinese, Ethiopic,...) characters from the charcter map from
the font Arial Unicode MS (Accesoires;System tools; character map)
Paste them in the TEdit and you'll see some "???"

So, TEdit doesn't display UNICODE. The rest of the the components doesn't
either.

Has anyone tried this? solved this?
Any experiences?

Thank you!
Kristof.
