Hi
I've got an app that is now to be used globally and therefore needs to be made unicode-compliant. I've read that as VB6 controls aren't unicode the best solution appears to be to replace them with the equivalents from the Microsoft Forms 2.0 component (users should have Office installed). However I can't make the list boxes behave like my old ones:
1) clicking an item in a (multiselect) list when the list isn't the focus selects the top item as well as the one clicked
2) setting tooltip text doesn't seem to work/show anymore
3) The font seems to be unstable if other controls overlap it grrr
Also, is there a way to make it scroll horizontally if a list item is too long to view?
Do these controls needs to be on an MS Forms form rather than a vb form?
Is there a better way to make the app unicode-compliant?
Any tips much appreciated.
