A little searching on groups.google.com seems to be telling me that VB only
really does UTF-16 (Unicode) and even then, most of the controls don't
support it.

Others are saying UTF-8 is possible (pseudo UTF-8 anyway, it's actually a
subset of UTF-16) but is *seriously* difficult. I've not found any real
answers though :-(
