You might still be able to resolve the problem. You might only need to change the caption properties on a few controls. I was able to work around the problem by changing the assignment slightly.

As you might already know, the double-byte character system uses a "lead-in byte" that specifies that a following byte or sequence of bytes is to be translated as an Asian character. Sometimes the second character happens to correspond to the ASCII character denoting the end of a string (ASCII codes 34, 39, or 93). As far as I've seen, this is the general nature of the problem you're encountering (this happened to be the problem I was encountering).

It might simply mean you just have to change the single string literal to a concatenation of the portion of strings. Say for example the string literal in the CAPTION property is something like:

This is ** test

where the ** represents the problematic character sequence that's causing the parsing problem:

if you change it to:

='This is '+CHR(__)+CHR(__)+' test'

you might be able to work around the problem. As for exactly which character sequences are causing problems, it depends on the double-byte system you're using. As I stated earlier, look for when the second character in the double-byte sequence is string quote character (ASCII codes 34, 39, or 93 depending on which character you're using for string delimiters).
