I think, you need Unicode supported controls for displaying those characters.
Try searching this forum for "unicode control", especially in CodeBank - Visual Basic 6 and earlier.

You will find lots of custom controls..

I believe, you also need to add Far Eastern and/or Arabic language support to your system. Do this via the Regional Settings applet in control panel.
