I cannot write few turkish letters such as ğ, ı, ç, ş on VEE 9.2.

How can I come over this issue?

I'm sure you've tried using the character map to copy / paste the characters. In my experience, some VEE objects support unicode characters, others not. If you know you need to support these from when you first make the program, you can probably use those items that work for most of the user interface. To update a legacy system might take more work including replacing some GUI items, maybe even with .NET items.

It would be useful to hear your conclusions when you have finished this work.

Hope that helps, Mike Watts

  Hi Mike,
  
  Copy/Paste method does not help. According to following link, VEE supports only characters in ASCII table .
  
  http://cp.literature.agilent.com/litweb/pdf/E2120-90011.pdf
  
  Since ğ,ş,ı are not in ASCII table, I cannot write these letters.
  
  I dont't understand why Agilent sells VEE software in Turkey if they do not support turkish letters.
  
  Because of such those things, unfortunetly we (ARÇELİK-Washing Machine Plant) think leaving VEE as soon as possible anyway.

    Unfortunately I don't have all the data to hand, but I did do an experiment, which required Windows 7 Ultimate ( which I'm guessing you'll need whatever language you decide to use ) , for a simplified Arabic translation. My conclusion was that it would be possible to make the user interface work with Arabic characters but that I might need to alter some things like VEE dialog boxes to a .NET equivalent.
    
    If it came to it, I think it would still be worth using VEE for the instrument / control side whilst using ( say ) VB.NET or C# to make the user interface and communicate via sockets or the like... but then I've long been a VEE proponent!
    
    Best Regards,
