Unicode Support in VB6Hello All,
I was wondering if anyone has any familiarity with any of these 3rd party unicode VB6 support products below: http://www.iconico.com/UniToolbox2/ http://www.hexagora.com/en_dw_unictrl.asp http://www.unisuite.com/product008.htm If so, do you have any review comments or favor one over the other? Thanks No, but you can use Unicode on most VB controls via a couple of API's and a
little work. Here is a little project I made up to show you how it is done. Ref: http://www.randem.com/freesoftutil.html go to "Display Unicode in Controls" at the bottom of the page. -- Show quoteHide quoteRandem Systems Your Installation Specialist The Top Inno Setup Script Generator http://www.randem.com/innoscript.html Find Out What Your VB Program is Really Doing http://www.randem.com/rstools.html "TMC" <getmyema***@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:uZ5e7D4$JHA.5068@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Hello All, > > I was wondering if anyone has any familiarity with any of these 3rd party > unicode VB6 support products below: > > http://www.iconico.com/UniToolbox2/ > > http://www.hexagora.com/en_dw_unictrl.asp > > http://www.unisuite.com/product008.htm > > If so, do you have any review comments or favor one over the other? > > Thanks By most do you mean TextBox and Labels ?

So lets say
I have a label with the font set to arial unicode. And I want to display in that label Chrw(&H2460). Can you show how to do that ? BTW: in your code you have: For Each frm In Forms ' Attempt each form With frm .Font = "Arial Unicode MS" .Caption = sStr .Text = sStr DefWindowProc ctl.hWnd, WM_SETTEXT, 0, ByVal StrPtr(sStr) .Refresh End With ' Attempt each control on the form For Each ctl In Me.Controls Clearly ctl is not in scope inside your With frm block.

applicable to find exceptions... BTW: Does it work. You are so busy attempting to take it apart you don't even see what it actually does. I never sated that it does not work for Labels or Textboxes but clearly state an issue with a partitcular approach ' This works for all controls having an hWnd which respond to the WM_SETTEXT message. ' A Label has no hWnd and the textbox and combobox do not respond to WM_SETTEXT. Taken that into affect, the other approach rectifies that issue and Labels and Textboxes do work. But I guess the actual PROOF seem to elude you. -- Show quoteHide quoteRandem Systems Your Installation Specialist The Top Inno Setup Script Generator http://www.randem.com/innoscript.html Find Out What Your VB Program is Really Doing http://www.randem.com/rstools.html "Bill McCarthy" <TPASoft.com Are Identity Thieves> wrote in message news:uuvW206$JHA.3732@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > > Well your sample says it doesn't support textboxes nor labels.

I don't believe there is an easy approach for VB6 other than a complete set of 3rd party controls. For VB versions later than VB6, then unicode is supported with the intrinsic controls. So that's one low cost option that provides you with great flexibility: you can write the controls in VB.NET, and use then in VB6.

I figured as much.
The real issue then becomes ROI regarding writing the controls in .Net vs. just buying controls from someone else ;-) I just wondered if anyone else had used any of the 3 3rd party tools mentioned, if there were others that could be recommended, etc. Show quoteHide quote "Bill McCarthy" <TPASoft.com Are Identity Thieves> wrote in message news:%238TyDbEAKHA.3732@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > Hi TMC, > > I don't believe there is an easy approach for VB6 other than a complete > set of 3rd party controls.

The ROI really depends on how complex you want your controls to be. Like using a .NET control, you can inherit from base controls and add functionality easily. If you decide to extend a 3rd party control in VB6, you have to encapsulate it in a user control (or do cut and paste with the relevant code blocks each time you use it). So there's that flexibility. If I was taking the .Net from VB6 approach, I'd basically write the Ui in ..NET. Depending how much you have already, it's be either UserControls that constitute much of the form, or entire forms, or the entire UI (.NEt app that calls on VB6 dll instead of other way around). That said, if your needs are simple, an off the shelf 3rd party control set might be quickest to get up and running; then again there is that whole "looking for the right set" that your currently doing. I'd seriously want the source with the controls. I've seen too many of those companies disappear over the last five years or so, or just drop support for a set of controls.

If you're going to suggest alternative tools with Controls that do natively support unicode then suggest ALL of them, and not just those produced and sold by your Micro$oft puppet masters. You're just a troll McCarthy. A Micro$oft stooge. Mike
