    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.
