Hi, Does Lazarus have a unicode conversion table for this ASCII character set? See url.
http://www.web-wise-wizard.com/programming/ascii-ibm-extended-character-set.html As you can see from the url, the characters below Char(32) is very different to standard ASCII table or the ASCII table with CodePage 437. I'm reading old binary data files that used the IBM Extended ASCII characters in text content. At the moment I simply do a the following to replace certain characters. For example, what we know as the standard ascii (bell character), was the a bullet character. s := StringReplace(s, Char(7),'•', [rfReplaceAll, rfIgnoreCase]); Times have changed! I remember those smiley face characters in a old pac-man game I used to play. :-) Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
