GW>Ord requires a character, not a string.  Try this:
Strings are the one thing that gives me the most "trouble".  With VB, you
have one string type, whereas Delphi has 3 (Char, String, & PChar).  
But now that I have really started full blown conversion of my VB program, I
am really getting to enjoy using Delphi.  I wish more VB'ers would see the
light and escape from the Microsoft machine :)
