I converted my project to Delphi6 now and on the Developer's guide, page
12-7, I can see a mixed charset listbox.

I tried to link a DBGrid with a mixed charset Access2000 DB using "Arial
Unicode MS" font, but I got a lot of '?'. :-(

Someone can show me how to set a DBGrid to see a mixed charset string like
on page 12-7?

Thanks a lot,
Marco
