I'm afraid is not possible, sorry.
Regards,

Any workaround ?
Many people should be using Unicodes (to use other than English language).
TIA

it's used to set the correct codepage in each case. The problem to use
unicode in a program is that everything in that program should be
unicode, or you have to make conversions everywhere. That includes DBF
or any other DB manager, calling to windows API, and so on.
In the case of Xailer, all controls are created in ANSI mode, using the
selected codepage. So, pure unicode chars cannot be used, that is, every
char must fit 8 bits, not 16 bits, limiting the amount of simultaneous
chars to 256. However, as I've said before, you may set the codepage to
the desired one by calling that Harbour's function hb_cdpselect(). At
the beginning of the program, Xailer calls HB_CdpSelect( hb_cdpOS() ),
to select the OS default CP, but you may change to any other one.

Hi,
Xailer was constructed with only ANSI charset support, which was the only available in [x]harbour from its beginning. Now, I believe Harbour has start supporting Unicode, but unfortunately its a lot of work to do on Xailer to support it.
BTW, we have some function for Unicode conversion:
- AnsiToWide()
- WideToAnsi()
- Utf8ToAnsi()
- AnsiToUtf8()
Regards,

Milan,
BTW, I forgot to say that windows uses UTF-16, not UTF-8, so, if you
need to store UTF-8 data, you have to make the conversion when needed.
