Hi Richmond, My bad, should have been:
numtoChar(55357) & numToChar(56832) Note that current versions of LiveCode don't really treat surrogate pairs properly - each codeunit of the pair is treated as a character so it is possible to do things like apply a style that only affects one of the two units. When this happens, the string gets split between the pair and it no longer works properly so be careful. As I like to harp on about, this will be fixed in 7.0.
