Thanks for the clarification Joe. I was reading some and it was also suggested on the RB Off topic list that I could probably use some platform specific constants as I am just trying to use the ©, ®, and (copyright, registered , and trademark symbols). The reason I ran into it is that in a few VB projects I am converting they had used some of the symbols. Most of the reading I have done says to use the "system font" for best results. I am mainly concerned with what it does on a Mac.
VB code will of course be assuming a Windows environment, so if you simply change any occurrence of Chr to Encodings.WindowsLatin1.Chr (for values greater than 127), I bet it will work fine.
Also, REALbasic source code is stored in Unicode. It is fully cross-platform compatible. If you can type these values directly into your source code, as a string literal or a constant value or whahtever, then it should work fine on all platforms that way too.
