Or is it implementation dependant ? afaiu, utf-16 is still variable length, as some characters are "surrogate pairs", so 2 lots of 16 bits. Either way, the string functions count characters, not bytes, so you don't have to worry about the underlying encoding. -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/
