Several Troubles with Message Tables

Hi all,

I've experienced some troubles with message tables and wanted to know if
anybody knows a solution for one of them:

- If I translate my .mc file into a Unicode .bin file, some of the chars are
afterwards returned incorretly by FormatMessage (which is not the case if
the .bin output is ANSI! - very strange). I've experienced this with some
german chars like ä,ö,ü.

- This is very strange, too: I can't retrieve - exactly - the 20th message!
It doesn't matter what text or id this message has assigned, FormatMessage
always returns "invalid parameter". The message is definitely stored in the
..bin file and the ID is correct. My only solution at the moment is to insert
a dummy message at this place into the file, which is not used.

- I wasn't able to properly install a custom build on a message table file.
The is an entry in the MS Knowledge Base about that, but I couldn't get my
message compiler not to overwrite the resource file (maybe it has to do with
German resources). This is not of too much importance, as .NET 2003 seems to
be able to handle more than one resource file.
Thank you,

Stefan
