Asian Characters Chinese, Korean

[scotttyang]

I guess it just occurred to me, I just can't do a

put line 1 of fld "asiancharacters" into fld "container"

I really just need to put a line with eg. Korean Characters and put it into another field. I can copy korean characters into a field from, eg. Microsoft Word or from Macs TextEdit app, but moving between fields, I am stuck...

any easy solutions?

I am no expert on this, but can't you use the unicodeText?

set the unicodeText of fld "yourField" to the unicodeText of fld "yourOtherField"

That actually worked pretty well! each line has three item with itemdelimiter to tab. I was able to isolate the 2 Korean characters to a separate field on a separate line.

woman 여 자 yuh-ja

on mousedown
set the itemdelimiter to tab
set the unicodetext of line 1 of field "def" to the unicodetext item 2 of line 1 of fld scrollfield
end mousedown

results in

여 자


thanks! I'm sure someone find it useful
