Multilingual support on win98

[kuldeep]

Hi all,
I am developing a multilingual application in which I display hindi and
english text in the UI. The application executes well on Win 2000 and Win XP
but when executed on Win98 the hindi text appears garbage.
I have installed a hindi font on that m/c but even then the text appears
garbage.

I wanted to know how to display hindi text on Win 98.

This is caused by the lack of full unicode-support on Windows 98.

Are you running the machine on a hindi system?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
No I am not running the application on a hindi system and I am using the
following controls in the application.
1. menus
2. labels
3. textboxes
4. comboboxes
5. List View
Windows 98 is not fully unicode compliant but I would like to know if there
is a way out to display hindi text on win 98.
