Ah..
So 'A' calls are for single....I thouhgt for Multi-Byte. I thought is
reversed. Sorry my stupid mistake.
Thanks for making it clear to me.

Normally you don't directly call the A-functions. Only when you are 
doing things that *must* be single or multi-byte code you directly 
code with A/W-functions. Nearly all of the time you don't have to 
call A or W functions yourself, let the compiler handle it.

What is wrong with directly calling the A-functions is that you break 
Unicode. If a future DScaler version is compiled with Unicode support 
your code breaks when someone wants the schedule a recording on a 
channel with a Japanese name (not tested but you get the idea). Try
renaming your printer to some name with Unicode characters in it. 
Many programs can't print to it anymore.
