Ok, that is a strange one! I'm using Gambas 2 here, there is no problem. Maybe there's something wrong in the way UTF-8 strings are handed to the textbox? But that would be something for Benoit - he's in charge of the inner mystiques of the Gambas system ;-) No: Just had this idea: Is the textbox a richtext-box? And could it be that it interprets white spaces as mere words-separating according to HTML? So that would explain it. Try " " or "   " instead, does it help?
