(Windows 2000 + Outlook 2002 + Exchange 2000) and Unicode ?

S

SEAK Teng-Fong

I've got Windows 2000 Pro in French version (so system
locale is in "Western European").

And I have Office XP, thus Outlook XP. We've just
upgrade Exchange server to Exchange 2000 SBS.

So, according to what I've read, everything is supposed
to be compatible to Unicode. However, I still find that I
can't have non-Western European (non-WE) characters;
neither display or input.

For example, nowhere in the address book could I enter
any non-WE character. Instead, I would just get questions
marks.

When I receive an email, the situation is a bit
better. Message body displays correctly no matter what
encoding is used. But non-WE characters in Subject field
are also displayed as question marks. At to From field,
Outlook just simply displays the e-address. Without
having the Subject field displayed correctly, it's very
annoying.

So, do I miss something in setup or are these known
bugs in Outlook XP or Exchange 2000?

TIA
