For the simple processing of strings in the manner you describe, do not be put off by suggestions that you should upgrade to the latest compiler and Unicode enabled framework. The Unicode support itself is of course provided by the underlying Windows API which is of course (directly) accessible from "non-Unicode" versions of Delphi just as much as from "Unicode versions".

I suspect that most if not all of the Unicode support that you need for the purposes outlined in your question can be obtained from the Unicode support provided in the JEDI JCL.

For any visual component support you may require the TNT control set has the appeal of being free.
