How to print Unicode text ??

[prasadmokashi]

Hi,

I want to read from the text file which contains unicode characters & then print the whole thing using printer object in Visual basic.

But instead of actual unicode characters only question marks '?' getting printed.

I am sure I am reading the file correctly because if the same text read from the file is displayed in the unicode version of text box (i.e Forms 2.0 object lib) then it gets displayed correctly.

What I feel is the problem is to make printer object understand the unicode characters.

Can anybody please help ?
I have already investigated into this too much....but invain...

Thanks & Regards,
Prasad

You could convert them from unicode using

myVariant = StrConv(MyUnicode, vbFromUnicode)

and then push the MyVariant to the printer...

Take Care

Hi Matt,

Thank you for your response.

I have already tried that.
It didn't work.
