vb6 and in vb.net ???

Usign the same font ? Have you checked that AscW returns the same code ?

For now I'm unable to repro this...

On the same computer?

This has very much to do with the used code table.

I hope this helps a little bit?

I am not able to see any difference between the characters returned by the
function in VB6 and VB.NET.

Nikos,
In addition to the other comments:

How are you deciding they return different characters?

Are you seeing something different on a Window? Are you certain you are
using the same fonts?

Are you seeing something different in a file? Are you certain you are using
the correct encoding?

Are you seeing something different in the output window? Are you certain
this is not a fluke of the output window.

Are you using Asc to get the ordinal value of the Char? You really need to
use AscW instead, as Asc returns the ANSI char code, while AscW returns the
Unicode char code. ChrW accepts a Unicode char code...

Can you describe exactly what you are doing that you think they are
returning different values.
