Detect the unicode character

[YasserKhalil]

Hello everyone

I have a string and within the string, I have this character "ä" .. How can I detect the unicode character of this letter?
I know this issue may be trivial but I forgot about it every time so I am intending to post a series of questions so as to learn correctly this issue

The AscW function returns the decimal Unicode value of a character.

AscW("ä") returns 228 (in this example, "ä" is actually part of the ANSI character set). If you want the hexadecimal value, you can use Hex(AscW(...)).

Thank you very much. That's very informative
Suppose I have the hexadecimal value which is in this case E4. How can I reverse to get the character?

Code: Select all

    Dim strHex As String
    Dim strChar As String
    Dim lngDec as Long
    strHex = "E4"
    lngDec = CLng("&H" & strHex)
    strChar = ChrW(lngDec)
