Yes, I'm afraid I may have to punt on this as well. Seems there isn't even an RTLMoveMemory/CopyMemory on CE anyway. I was almost ready to try calling WideCharToMultiByte and then MultiByteToWideChar to try copying that buffer. Hmm, I now see that FoldString might have worked assuming the necessary DLL is present (Coreloc.dll?).
Thank you for the response, and for your list of those aliases.
