I was trying to create a button with an up arrow (hex: 0x25B2, or dec: 9650), and the Chr() function wouldn't print the correct character. Instead, it printed a superscript 2, like you would see on x squared. A superscript 2 is hex code 0xB2, meaning that the Chr() function missed the first portion of the code (the 25). I'm not sure what's up with that, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to fix that, or something similar. Or is there a limit to how big the ascii code number can be?

In fact, characters 128 to 255 are the "Extended ASCII Character set"

I'm assuming you want a GUI; try the Wingdings font:

GuiCreate("Really Lazy Example")
GUICtrlCreateButton("ÙÝáéñ", 10, 10, 200, 200)
GuiCtrlSetFont(-1, 24, 800, 0, "Wingdings")
GuiSetState()
Sleep(5000)

I knew something was wrong. You were both right, and ascii wasn't what I was looking at. I just assumed the unicode would work for ascii, and it didn't. Turns out Wingdings 3 had the characters I was looking for. Thanks for reminding me about fonts CyberSlug.
