Good point, but the font is the same (Arial) and also same "DEFAULT_CHARSET" for both components.
I've attached a portion of a screen shot showing the problem. The ListView item below the green one is displayed in the yellow Next Track area above, but it's just rubbish. I just found out that another label on another form, showing just the artist, the characters look correct. So perhaps it is to do with the concatenating? Label.caption := listitem.caption+' - '+listitem.subitems[0]; It is Windows XP, and not sure if it is a Thai Windows or not. Will that actually make some difference when the Non-Unicode App setting is set to Thai in the Control Panel. The user sent a screen shot showing this was set correctly.

Special fonts are used to represent the Thai characters. Is perhaps the "Font" attribute of the tLabel set to a font name different from that of the tListView? If so, there may be a Thai equivalent of the tListView font, but the tLabel font may be English-only. If so, the label will display those characters in the range #80 to #FF in an English font, which will include all those funky characters such as accented letter and diphthongs. What does the tLabel look like? Can you get a screen shot? That might help diagnose the problem. Also, is the user using Thai Windows, or English Windows set for Thai? There is a difference in the way fonts are rendered between these (in Win 2000 and Win XP, don't know if Vista does it that way).
