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
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
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.

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.

OK, I can display the following correctly...
memo1.Lines.Add('Yen = ' + chr(165));
memo1.Lines.Add('Pound = ' + chr(163));
memo1.Lines.Add('Euro = ' + chr(128));
and they display the correct currency symbols, but when I add
memo1.Lines.Add('Baht = ' + chr(3647));
I still comes
Steve, the VCL components don't support Unicode characters, this is on the road
map and is expected to be delivered next year. For now I would suggest the
excellent TMS component suite. (http://www.tmssoftware.com/)

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 :

The Baht symbol
Damn, I was hoping someone wasn't going to tell that. I was just
checking into this 'Unicode' word when your email hit.
Thanks Tim.

Thanks Colin, I'm looking at the TMS Unicode component also.

I think the delphi-gems web site also has some unicode stuff from
memory.
I would have thought though if you changed to the correct codepage or
character set, that then you could use the correct symbol - however it
would not have Unicode character value that you mentioned.

Wouldn't there be a 8bit thai codepage? 874?

One thing that I encountered was that Windows message handling was
different (or non-existent?) when a screensaver is active.
For a personal project (http://gloss.ildica.com/) I wrote a screensaver
in Delphi which I wanted to communicate with another process on the same
machine. Windows messages
There is an article about that at...

I had a full Chinese translation of my software at one point and all I saw
was ? when running it here, but the Chinese version of Windows displayed
it fine.
But if you want the symbols displayed in all codepages then I believe it
needs to be Unicode.

Hello Brian,
The uppercase beta that you are seeing is in fact the character used
for the Baht symbol. See

There are however a couple of pitfalls (at least in Delphi7, not sure any of
