Hi...
This time I am trying something different.Developing one application using VB6 and Sql Server where accepting user details on form. But I want to save them in marathi as well as in english depending on user specification. Further this information will be used in application and reports will be generated.

1) I tried it using font i.e. "shivaji01" but it only showing it in marathi format while typing but not saving in Marathi, so problem is while displaying saved records to user it should be in Marathi.


2) Secondly I used Google Input tools. It was working using VB.NET but in case of VB6, I found that VB6 texbox doesn't support Unicode and shows question mark for every character.

Any of these or another solution will do..

Hope you got my problem.

Thanks In advance. :)

You've essentially answered your own question - VB6 textbox doesn't support unicode. You could look at using a RichTextBox but I strongly, strongly, strongly recommend that you do not use VB6 for this project unless your boss absolutely insists upon it. You have posted other questions on VB.NET and this would be the better way forward for this project - especially as you will probably find many examples via google

Hello Dhananjay,

I think you can use convertors and convert the project to vb.net that wont cost you much rather, in turn solve your problem...

Thanks for your reply,
but I have to it in VB6 only because software is already developed, its for maintenance.
Can you tell me solution for first way i.e.using fonts like shivaji01 or any other font.
Which will work as for both input and output.

No way to do it in vb6 which I want so, I left it.
Thanks to all for your reply. :)

how to convert marathi script to english in vb/vb.net
what i suggest is do not try to save data in marathi format as this is not your requirement. According to your requirement you need to display data in marathi right.

so use the same font shivaji01 in your reports to display the data or anwhere wherever you need to display the data and your problem gets sorted out.
