Displaying Hebreq Characters in a message box....

hey guys, this is a question from a good friend. He asked me but i have no idea but i said i knew some guys who would

"However, values in the ANSI character set above 127 are determined by the code page specific to your operating system."

In VB I want to display Hebrew characters in a message box derived from a text box. I'm selecting a letter and then using the msgbox function. All I get is a "?" instead of the character. Hebrew characters are represented in the higher ascii range. How can I display the actual character on the screen in the msgbox funcion? I'm sure this is to do with the "code page" for the operating system but I don't know how to change this.


If anyone can help it would be really appreciated.

thanks

If you search the documentation for something like LCID I think you can change the code page for your code only.

Otherwise you can change the locale setting for the whole computer.

I think -- I only do English coding

Thanks very much Doug, i will pass it on.
