Where I have to use normal and DBCS text in the same doc I try to delimit it, cut it with the split function, then work on entirely DBCS or non DBCS text.

There are some functions for determining whether a byte is non DBCS or high byte or low byte section of DBCS, but they're a hassle and I can't be bothered writeing functions to check everything (although I should build a few classes I suppose)

Here's a task that got me: Try to build a text colour function that works for changing html tags when some of the text is DBCS! you're find positions go out the window and you need to capture with instr() and you colour the wrong areas.
