I really need some help to try understanding the following "behaviour":
I open in word (or wordpad) a .mnu file written in some foreign language
using some special characters. I copy a short string that I paste in a MB
program as a key string.
If I print that string to a file, it appears the same.
If I print it to the message window, some characters are changed.
When I make some string recognition (any same length string from the same
mnu file compared with the "key" string) it does not work until I change the
characters in the key string to what they look like in the window message.
I did that with polish : e.g. the "fused oe" must be replaced by "pound
sign". I have not ventured into other languages yet, I do not want to tackle
some "impossible" task.
My question is thus simple : Is it possible that MI has an "internal"
character map that would be different from windows? And what would it be?
All that experience was gained with MI5.5 under Windows 95 with a
North-American setting.
If anyone can enlight me, I would be so happy. TIA.
