I have changed messages that I get when some error happend, changing resource strings in DBConsts.pas.
For example:
SMaskEditErr = 'Invalid input value. Use escape key to abandon changes';
I have change dwith:
SMaskEditErr = 'T............';
But i can't get non english letters in messages. How can I solve this trouble?
THANKS!
 
Have you tried typing in Word and using the clipboard?

If not, you can force the characters in by ASCII value. What? They don't have an ASCII value, you say?

You might have to create your own error dialog so you can set the Font.

Let me know how you are doing.

Cheers
 
I have tried to copy text from Word to Delphi. But I continue to have same trouble.
I thought to create my own messages using forms, but I also have trouble with caption of the forms (neither there I can't get non english letters). So, I get that trouble when my applications use Windows resources (windows, messages....).
Maybe I can change Windows system font, if that is possible, or something like that.
My english is not grate, so I apologize.
THANKS!
