How to deal with unicode?

I'm busy with an http request and response class.
However, the calling app is in ANSI, so single bytes are sent.
The receiver is an ASP.NET app.
Due home-brewed encoding i can use the ASP.NET string and will have the same
contents as the calling app.

What wonders me is that Mid( a$, 1, 1 ) in asp.net is still unicode.
We have a single character.. what are the possiblities this single character
can have?
It still looks a 256 bit ordinary byte.
But since it's actually 2 bytes, how would i convert a single character?

Would like to know the range of a single char.

?
