            That's OK. So far everyone has. What the OP wants is basically a .NET
    equivalent of CHR(n), that is, a function which, given a Unicode
    codepoint value, returns the character represented by that value.

            I believe that the best answer is ChrW:

            ...although this may be VB specific. Note that this appears to
    actually manage UTF-16 code values instead of Unicode codepoints. To go
    from hex values:

            ...works for variable values. I do not know if there is a notation for
    hexadecimal constants, but you can always use the Windows desk
    calculator to find the decimal value.

            HTH,
