Localising to Japanese in VB

Evil Phil · 08-05-2001 10:56am #1

I'm loading my strings out of a res file obviously, but I can't convert to Japanese for some strange reason. MSDN library says that I need to create a Double Byte Character Set thingy. How do I do this? Any other info. would be helpful.

Thanks Kayos. Unfortunatly the code doesn't work for japanese. You have to build you app on a japanese machine to localise it for Japan. (effing microsoft)

Have you tried installing Japanese support on your machine and IME?

I haven't tried IME yet, no. But I'll look into it.

Ok, turns out that vbs command buttons do not support unicode (ffs!). Does anybody know of a replacement?
