Quote: Hello, We have an existing App written with Delphi6 that uses Paradox as the database, and standard VCL controls (including data aware). We have been asked if our App can support the Welsh language, essentially a roman character set but with several accented letters. Most of the characters are supported by default, but some of them arent. It's possible, for example, to put a circumflex ^ over the letter W or Y, and this doesn't seem to be suported. From what I've been led to believe, Unicode or UTF-8 character sets can support these extended characters, but do Delphi6 or 7 VCL controls support Unicode or UTF-8?

Does this mean that standard VCL controls such as TEdit, TDBEdit, TMemo etc. do not support Unicode?

It only supports codepages as fare as the unterlying ANSI-Windows-Controls does. Jo Beaven wrote: Quote: Thanks for your answer.
