Hi, Kevin, Jesper, *

Sorry, I couldn't catch this discussion, just short comment.

Basically Japanese characters can be expressed double-byte as
Chinese, and some of Japanese characters use 4 bytes (called
"Surrogate Pair"), not a two byte, such as "𠀋" (U+2000B).

I know it's trivial example:

A1 = "𠀋𠀋"
B1 = MIDB(A1,1,1) returns ""
B1 = MIDB(A1,1,2) returns "(*)"
B1 = MIDB(A1,1,3) returns "(*)"
B1 = MIDB(A1,1,4) returns "𠀋"
B1 = MIDB(A1,1,5) returns "𠀋(*)"
B1 = MIDB(A1,1,6) returns "𠀋(*)"
B1 = MIDB(A1,1,7) returns "𠀋(*)"
B1 = MIDB(A1,1,8) returns "𠀋𠀋"

(*) is a special character means that font has no glyph in that codepoint.

I wonder if HELP should describe such a detail, though.
