Question revival: Unicode strings not shown

[tmighty]

Hello!

I have my Android device now, it is an Acer A200.

Now I would like to test Unicode strings with values (>256) because I want to localize my application. But like the emulator the device does not show Unicode characters that are beyond the ASCII values. For example a Greek character is not shown. Such characters are simply not shown/stripped from the strings.

I can see the (correct) Unicode string in the IDE, but neither in the emulator nor on the device.

How should I go on from here?

Thank you!

working for me.

There is no problem with unicode characters. It is possible that you are using a character that is not supported by the current typeface. Though I expect Greek characters to be supported.
Can you post your code?

Sorry, I must be going crazy...

I had this code

sCaption = nMap2.GetValueAt(2) & "Φ"

I do swear that the Greek character was not shown.

After I copied the code (to post it here) and ran the app again (just to be 100% sure), the Greek character showed up.

I have no idea what is going on with me.
If I can reproduce what was happening here, I will post again.

Thank you so far, it works now.
