"Carlos" | I need to save and printing later a character string with a "special"
character I should insert the special character "great equal to" or the "less equal to" with a single character, not as > = or <= I read in a previous message to a wide string but I do not understand how to do. Thanks Carlos |

<< As mentioned above the character are "great equal to" and "less equal to" e.g.: Arial font U+2264 and U+2265 >> Ahh, sorry about that - I thought that the >= and <= bit was about what you wanted to do with the characters. So you want to insert Unicode characters into an ANSI string ? I'm not sure if this will be possible due to issues with the leading byte in the two-byte Unicode character. What I would try is to implicitly cast the WideChar to an ANSI string like this: MyField.AsString:=WideChar(Word(2264)); But I'm not sure if this will work with the default code page conversion that takes place when Delphi converts WideStrings to AnsiStrings. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
