Hi together,
I'm not sure, if this is the right group. So please make an X-Post if it
is necessary.

I would like to develop Windows application with Unicode characters
(f.e. chinese simplified) in EditBoxes, Listviews, Reading and writing
Access mdb databases, writing and reading utf-16/utf-8 files.

It is easy with VC.net, nut this needs an installation of the .net
framework. And I don't want to install anything else on my customers
computers than the application itself. The best would be an application
that runs from a CD without installation at all.

With Microsoft MFC it should be possible, but I think I would like more
the IDE of Borland's CBuilder 6.

Trying to enter unicode results in "???".

Searching with google I did not find any solution.

Thank you for any hints or the clear answer that it is not possible, Bernd

It's not - hence the lack of replies. "CBuilderX" is a different product
altogether.... You should try b.p.cppbuilder.* in future.

Look at Troy Wolbrink's wonderful TNTware unicode controls for Delphi/BCB.
They should do exactly what you require, without .NET.
