Hi, Just looked into the wide character issue and it seem Flex does have support for this via IME (Input Method Editor). These some info here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/system/IME.html http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=18_Client_System_Environment_6.html
This works on the TextInput not on the Validator, so Validator class support it is probably not the way forward. At this point I think it may be best to remove wide number support from the class and I'll see if I can get an wide number/character example working via IME. Thanks, Justin
