It is probably a font problem.
You can try to copy a font file from the desktop to the device (to \Windows\Fonts) which includes this character and use FormLib.ChangeFont to set this font instead of the regular font.

Hi Erel,
please try this little Programm.

See the attached example.
It uses a font named Mathematica1Mono to show the Greek letters.
You need to copy the font to the device: \Windows\Fonts.
This font and many other fonts can be found in the desktop fonts folder: C:\Windows\Fonts.

Hi Erel,
thank you very much. The Programm is all ready run. But I think it is easier to use CHR-Codes. I need two fonts in a textbox (Example: Textbox1.text = "cos "&CHR(977). In your Version load I the Greek Letters in a Listbox and I use Textbox1.text = "cos "&Listbox1.SelectedIndex = 2. Is that right.

Thanx for your time

Regards Bernd

You need to find a font that allows you to show both the greek characters and the other characters you need.
You can't combine two fonts in the same control.

Hi Erel,
Theta (chr(977)) is the only greek letter that doesn´t run. It´s not much important.

and thanx for help
