I guess you can do it in VB with strings, but most of the controls (buttons, textboxes) don't support unicode, only one codepage at a time. Some that do support Unicode are Datagrid and Forms20 controls and they also have some problems in Win95/98/Me.
Search the net for unicode buttons or make your own using windows api unicode functions.

I've experienced developing an application which is in chinese version. I just input the those chinese characters in the caption and text properties of the buttons, tabs, etc.
Everything is just the same, except for one thing. You need to compile the project in a chinese windows operating system.
Try it. It might work :)

Work with visual UNICODE components, it will solve the problem for you. For instance, if you want to output HTML contents in UNICODE you can use the VXPLib component.
Email me, if you need it.
