Unicode/international

[Wardeaux]

I'm looking for information on writing a program (asp.net and desktop
vb.net) for Asia starting with Japan. I already have an ASP.NET app written
with the functionality desired, but I did not take into consideration
Unicode when writing (my bad, I know...) I'm looking for info/tips on how to
convert/rewrite in Unicode so that I can market in Japan.

1) How can I convert non-Unicode program to Unicode standard?
2) Any tips or "gotcha"s to be aware of/

Jo Wardeaux,

Why not ask this in a newsgroup as
microsoft.public.jp.dotnet.dotnet.vsnet

It is a very empty newsgroup however I saw every message is answered.

And do not forget to excuse yourself for writing in English,

I hope this helps something,

Cor

I am not sure what your question is about. Are you referring to the
encoding the files are encoded with?

Herfried,
thanks for the reply... no I'm just trying to figure out what I need to do
to get my asp.net app to market in Japan... maybe a silly question, just
not one I've explored before...
MTIA!
