Hi, It's always the way, you try and do something simple, and run into a brick wall! OK, I have a button I click to open up a dialog: procedure TForm1.Button15Click(Sender: TObject); begin OpenDialog1.Execute; OpenDialog1.FreeOnRelease; end; When I click the button, the dialog pops up, I select a file, and just want to display it in an Edit field as follows: procedure TForm1.OpenDialog1Close(Sender: TObject); begin Edit13.Text := Opendialog1.Filename; end;
But what is displayed in the Edit field is rubbish such as "às" or "@t" - which is strange because the contents differ even if I select the same file each time! I think this might be something to do with Unicode characters(?) but am not sure. I am using Delphi 5 on Windows XP SP2 Any help appreciated.
