VB and 'graphical' languages

[FE-FR]

Hi,

I know that I am in a .net newsgroup, but you probably advise me.

I must use VB6 for a small tool. I need to display an information in a
graphical language (hebrew, arabic, ...).

As a test, I would like to display HELLO on the screen in English and
hebrew. For example, use a LABEL control.

If I select the DAVID font, ... how can I display the caracters I need ?

If I use the 'insert symbol' option in Winword, I can see that graphical
caracters are for example 05D2h (1488). How can I use this with a LABEL
control in VB6 ?

Thanks for your help

FE

VB6 controls do not support Unicode. If you want to support unicode in
UIs, I would use .NET.
