Char is a 'signed char' - so, naturally, it'll think about the sign bit if you try to put it elsewhere, for example: w = (WChar) -1; will put 0xFFFF into w :) what you really wanted to do is: WChar w; w = (unsigned short)c; maybe that'll help :) --- Aaron Ardiri [EMAIL PROTECTED] CEO - CTO +46 70 656 1143 Mobile Wizardry http://www.mobilewizardry.com/ -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
