Yuri,

Thanks for your response. I posed my question the wrong way round.

What I meant was what range of numbers is accepted by chr() function in order
to give Kanji characters, or conversely, what is the range of numbers output from
the ASCII() function when fed with Kanji characters. Or is there some other function
that converts Kanjis to numbers ?

Anyone know this?

Thanks,

Mike Gould
