UTF-8,UTF-16, Unicode characters have been possible for 5-6 years via 3rd party Libraries used with Visual Basic 6.
Legacy 7 and Legacy 8 both could have supported UTF-8 with these libraries. Some 3rd product libraries and there are others: http://www.cyberactivex.com/unicodetutorialvb.htm http://www.hexagora.com/en_dw_unictrl.asp Unicode would allow you to documet ancestors with Cyrillic, Japanese, Chinese, Hebrew and many other letters currently not supported. Whether Legacy 9 departs from VB6 or not it should support Unicode, UTF-8 and UTF-16. Do we know if this is part of the spec for Version 9?
