Chinese charactersI have a list of last names that can be in different languages:
chinese, english, russian, german, etc. Different format need to be applied only for last names in chinese. For this purpose, I need to check if last name contains chinese characters. Any ideas how to do it (it should be data related check)? Thank you, Ludmila I would suggest looking at the Unicode standard and seeing which bands are
reserved for those characters. Then compare the Unicode character codes to see if they're in those bands. NB: Use ChrW$(), not Chr$(). The former returns the Unicode character code whereas the latter returns the ANSI character code Tony Proctor <lyudmi***@ungerboeck.com> wrote in message Show quoteHide quote news:1141942103.473323.80280@e56g2000cwe.googlegroups.com... > I have a list of last names that can be in different languages: > chinese, english, russian, german, etc. Different format need to be > applied only for last names in chinese.
