Why?

[Keli]

Hi
In my Spelling game I use sound files for each of the 32 letters of the Icelandic alphabet.
I use Lower$(string$( "String 19" )) - I turn all strings to Lower$ as I use the same sound file for both "A" and "a"
This works well for all letters but special Icelandic letters.
It does not work with the letters á and ó I have not tried all. If the letter in "String 19" is "Á" then
Lower$(string$( "String 19" )) Equal "á" does not play the sound
But If I add a new Event
string$( "String 19" ) Equal "Á" then the sound file plays.
It is no problem I just do not understand why it does not work.

Simply put: Because the programmers of the function did not include these letters in the conversion code.

Check your coding. Are you sure the ones for á and ó are coded correctly?

Hi

Yes I´m quite sure it´s always the same

Lower$(string$( "String 19" ))

Equal

"The letter"

I suspected something like this!

Thanks,
