Is there someway to allow different character sets?



FONT.CharSet := 162;

You may have to set this on each control and you also need
to check if the vender of the font supports that language
on the selected font you're using.

look up TFONT.Charset in your delphi help.


This didn't work. When I look at the Turkish captions in Excel, they look fine (Arial font).
When I paste them to a Notebook txt file, they are replaced with the familiar blocky rectangle - looks like a black chad!

When I copy and paste them to Delphi, the "different" characters are replaced with "?". The ORD of the CHR is actually changed to a 63. Is this just a problem with Delphi 5 that has been solved in later versions?



is the text you're working with UNICHARs? those are WideChar fonts.
Look into that.
