I'm not a high skilled programmer but because I mostly deal with such texts (it is Greek you see) I may think something. If it is on Windows visual component should support Unicode, your code may have no problem. There are available such components. If it is on Linux, I think you have to compile with gtk2 in order to get Unicode support. In any case font used should also support alphabets used in text. * you can use UTF8Copy() instead of Copy(), UTF8Pos instead of Pos() etc. This set of functions is implemented in lclproc.

How can I change the code for loading the file, in order to get the lines loaded correctly? bobby _________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
