I am writing a program in which the user needs to type in Russian words, using an English keyboard. I thought I could do this as follows:
I use a TRichEdit component. The user types in a letter of the Roman alphabet, and one or other of the RichEdit's keyboard events assigns a corresponding character code for a letter in the Cyrillic alphabet to the value of the Key parameter, in place of the one passed to it. I got a version of this method to work for substituting one standard ASCII character for another, but I find that it won't work for other characters: I just get question marks instead. I have managed to get almost the behaviour I want, but in a rather cumbersome way. The only way I have come up with to put the character I want into the RichEdit is: copy the character out of a string stored elsewhere, and paste it to where I want. There are a few disadvantages of this method, such as that it overwrites whatever else was on the Clipboard. I am sure there is a more direct way to get non-ASCII characters into a RichEdit, but I can't work out what it is. Any help, anyone? Michael Davis ------------------------ Yahoo!
