What is a codepage? and how do I know which one to use with these functions?
Anyone have any tips or hints when it comes to implementing UNICODE...
Any problems you ran into that might be helpful? Does/Donts?
Anything really...
Since ANSI chars only have 256 places, and the lower 128 are fixed, you won't get far only with the 128 upper ones. This is why there are codepages. A codepage is just a map that maps the upper 128 char codes to real characters.
A very good book on windows programming that also handles what you need to think ybout when programming UNICODE is "Expert Windows" by Jeffrey Richter.
