Hi Mike,

Have you tried using TCHAR instead of the familiar "char" and LPTSTR instead 
of LPSTR or "char*"?

Both TCHAR and LPTSTR can handle either a char or a wchar, depending on the 
way the project is compiled. Not sure if that will solve your problem, but 
we've started using that in all of our code to reduce possible problems down 
the road.

As for easy "escape characters" to convert from ANSI to UNICODE, I asked 
this some time back and was told that there really isn't a good one-to-one 
conversion for it.

If you must play with something, the closest functions you are going to find 
are WideCharToMultiByte and MultiByteToWideChar, but they don't work all the 
time.

HTH,
~Joe
