It is explained here: https://wiki.freepascal.org/Unicode_Support_in_Lazarus For LacaK I recommend using UTF-8 encoding as much as possible. Then everything "*just works*". You could have a unit or .inc file with WinCP constants for Delphi7, and then some IFDEFs. They should be explicitly converted to UTF-8 for LCL. UnicodeString constants can also be a good solution. It triggers an automatic conversion when assigned to a String variable. The conversion is usually fast enough. Juha
