You can use the richtext control to do this. I have this control working in several applications where the users can enter Czech, Polish, Russian, Chinese all together. Saving the text in a memo field works like a charm. There is a demo in VFP6 on how to do this. I haven´t checked this for VFP7/8/9 but it should work. Printing, however, is a pain in VFP6/7/8. I haven´t checked this for VFP9.
