Hi

I want to use FindFirst line of functions on WinXP, WinME and Win98 with 
lots of different local settings (e.g. Japanese Win98, Korean Win98, 
Chinese WinXP).

I used WideString on my testing code, thiking that will help supporting 
Unicode on WinXP. Because I wasn't sure if WinXP would use AnsiString 
for filenames or not. Please point out if i m wrong.

As stated on the title. Should i use WideString or AnsiString for such 
file functions?

Thanks
