Q: Using Unicode in Rich Text control

I'm trying to insert unicode characters into a VB Rich Text control
(in this case, the Full Block character (U+2588 on the character map).
If I copy and paste from the character map, the character displays
correctly. However, how would I insert this character from code? If
I copy from the Character Map into the VB Editor, the character is
converted to a "?", and sinct it's unicode instead of ASCII, I can't
use chr$().

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
