>>.font.object.codepage or some such property exists for most of ActiveXes I've seen. This one may have a somewhat different name of it, but if you got something that works for others, this should work analogously.

OK since we worked on this one together, here's the hint: the recursive procedure I wrote catches anything that exists at the end of form's .init() - including anything that has a .charset or .font.charset property; the object in case must be then instantiated with delay and so it isn't caught in this.
So just find what it is (goFish for "do recurse with ...") and apply the same process to this object as well.
