Unfortunately I need an substring, not everything up to the end :-(

If you don't have SetString, you can also call the SysAllocStringLen API function. It returns a BStr, which is really a WideString. I'm not sure the return type is declared correctly in Windows.pas, though, so you might need some creative type-casting, or just redeclare the function.
