Steve,
I think you are going to need to incorporate unicode. Learn about Unicode
here:
http://perl.net.au/wiki/Unicode
You will find the Thai character set here :
http://downloads.activestate.com/pub/apc/perl-current/ext/Encode/ucm/8859-11.ucm
The Baht symbol in Unicode is U0E3F \ xDF | 0 #
I'm sure I've incorporporated UTF in Delphi some years ago but can't quickly
find a reference to it.
Sorry for some reason I can't turn the above URLs into Hyperlinks. You'll
need to cut and paste them into your browser.
HTH.
Colin

Subject: Re: [DUG] Thai Baht Symbol - or Hex value to String converted
Just to clarify, My code states...
Label1.Caption := 'symbol (฿)';
Memo1.lines.add('symbol (฿)');
but in each case the question mark '?' is displayed instead fo the baht
symbol.
I will, no doubt, have the same issue with Pound and others.

I can also paste symbol (฿) into the source code and using a font
that supposed to render correctly, either Mocrosoft Sans Sarif or
Tahoma, all that will display is 'symbol (?)'.
Talk about frustrating.
Any help here by anyone would be really, really helpful.

Except that I can see it rendered on a web page, I can copy that
character into MS Word and it shows as a character. I can also copy
that character into this email (฿) and it shows correctly (Gmail, on
the internet).
Therefore, there should be a way that I can display that character in
a Label on a form.
Code Pages? A search of both D2007 and D7 help files produce a zero
result on this. Can you elaborate?
Thanks Rohit,

Just Guessing Here
1. If you use the currency format etc, then windows should do the
right
thing for a pc with thai on
2. Else I suspect code pages (are they still around) plus a font
that
has the character in it.

Good afternoon all.
I'm having problems displaying the Thai Baht symbol (฿) any ideas?
This page...
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0e3f/index.htm
Suggests that the sysmbol can be reproduced with the following...
HTML Entity (decimal) #3647;
HTML Entity (hex) #xe3f;
How to type in Microsoft Windows Alt +0E3F
UTF-8 (hex) 0xE0 0xB8 0xBF (e0b8bf)
UTF-8 (binary) 1110:10111000:1011
UTF-16 (hex) 0x0E3F (0e3f)
UTF-16 (decimal) 3,647
UTF-32 (hex) 0x0E3F (0e3f)
UTF-32 (decimal) 3,647
C/C++/Java source code \u0E3F
Python source code u\u0E3F
So, converting that to Delphi, how's that done. I want a label to
display the equivilent of..
Dollar = $12,345
Baht = ฿12,345
Any ideas?
Steve
