Need to convert hexidecimal to AnsiString unicode

[aeijohn]

What is best way to convert an hex unicode to AnsiString? Ideally, for me, the input would be hex code is in AnsiString with format of "u\ABCD"; output is AnsiString.

I tried this:

AnsiString st,su,sx;
.
.
su="00a9" //value varies when called
TCHAR sx[10];
sx[0]=NULL;
su="0x"+su;
wsprintf(sx,"%c",su.ToInt());
st+=sx;

which seems to works for 0x00a9, but gives garbage for 0x5b89 (represents Chinese character) when viewed in TList or TMemo (Font and Font Name = MS Sans Serif.)

Any ideas why 0x5b89 is not showned correctly?

If you do a Google search on Ansistring to Unicode characters, you'll get all sorts of good information on this.
