Problems with English MFC app on Chinese Windows
-
Hi, I have written an MDI MFC (using VS2010) application which one of our distributors in China is testing. He is running Windows 7, Simple Chinese. The problem he has encountered are that for some of the dialogs the text shows ??? instead of the text. These dialogs are MFC ones i.e. prompt to save an unsaved file or response to a value beign out of range in a dialog. since all the remaining text from the application resources show without any problems I wonder if it may be down to the application using a "Multi-byte Charactor Set" and not unicode. (can't remember why I choose "Multi-byte Charactor set") Should I build the application as a Unicode application? and would this help pave the way for localised resources? thanks in advance Robin

Robin, Its good if you build your application using Unicode character set, hopefully this will solve the problem.
Thanks, Anand.

Hi Anand, Thanks for your suggestion. I had suspected that building my application using unicode would solve my problem. I have heard back from our Chinese distributor this morning that the display issues are now resolved. Thanks, Robin.
