Turkish character problem

[Seapeace]

Hi,

Sorry if my post is repetitive. I have Windows 10. I just installed Office 19 and suddenly I lost the ability to write Turkish characters in VB6. For example, when I write a word with Turkish characters in a textbox, it appears as ��k�\. Same problem for the names of controls (a label or command button caption also appear as ��k�\.

I am having this problem not only during code writing in VB6 but also in all the executable programs that I already wrote with VB6.

It is interesting that I can write Turkish characters as ç-ş-ğ-ö-ü-ı-İ-Ç-Ş-Ğ-Ö-Ü here (and also in Word, Excel, Outlook) but not in VB6.
I am wondering whether this comes from Windows 10, Office 19 or VB6 itself ?

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi Seapeace, could you post your project? This would make it easier to see what is going on. Thanks.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your reply. The problem does not happen in one or two projects but in all VB6 projects (I have more than hundred). I was suspecting that this was coming from Windows 10 and my further research lead me to following page and fortunately it solved the problem, namely "Enabling Entry of all Unicode characters via Regedit" :

Glad to hear it.

The only thing that comes to mind is the setting at:

-> Windows 10 configuration
-> Time and language
-> Language (at left bar)
-> Administrative language settings (at right top)
-> Change configuration (button below)

Ensure that Turkish is selected there.

Thanks, Eduardo.
