Not certain that this is the appropriate or best way to deal with it (I know little about unicode), but just to swap the bytes (this sort of thing has worked well for me when dealing with binary numbers):

function swapBytePairs pString
  repeat with n = 2 to length(pString) step 2
    put char n of pString & char n-1 of pString after swappedString
  end repeat
  return swappedString
end swapBytePairs

Best,

Mark

I am writing an app with button labels in a non-Latin script (Cyrillic). Under certain conditions I need to change the label of these buttons. To do so I store the unicode text of the different label names in custom properties. But I just discovered that the byte order is swapped between Win and Mac (okay, I'm slow.) I can just store custom props with the different label variants for both mac and win, but that would be an inelegant kludge. Is there a way to reverse the byte order of unicode strings in Rev?
