I believe MS Project ships with several webparts for use in IE. These
are probably Unicode enabled.

I do not know of any.... but of course there may well be several
available.
Way too much stuff comes out of MS for anyone to keep track of it (heck,
didn't Gates move out of the CEO spot to have more time to review
products
again? He wasn't seeing it enough, either! <g>).

Well, if you have an OCX in mind, I might either know what the deal is
for
redist, or else I might know who to ask.... we can continue that
conversation offline if we have moved off of Unicode for that?

Most controls and components that ship with dev. products (and which a
dev
would need to deploy solutions) are on a redist list that is included
with
the product. This includes SQL Server, VS, VC, VB, Office Developer,
etc.
There are exceptions (which is why checking that redist list can be so
important) but by and large its true.
