How to represent Unicode character in VB.Net String literal?

Question

I know you can put Unicode character codes in a VB.Net string like this:

str = Chr(&H0030) & \"More text\"

Answer 1

To display an Unicode character, you can use following statement

1. ChrW(n) where n is the number representing de Unicode character.
2. Convert.ToChar(n)
3. type directly character in editor using Alt + N key combination
4. paste/copy Unicode character directly in editor
5. Char.ConvertFromUtf32(n)
6. XML String using &#x....; syntax

Example to assign ♥ character :

s = ChrW(&H2665)
s = Convert.ToChar(&H2665) 
s = "♥" 'in typing Alt+2665
s = "♥" 'using paste/copy of ♥ from another location
s = Char.ConvertFromUtf32(&H2665)
s = <text>I &#x2665; you</text>

BUT when Unicode Character is greater than 0xFFFF (C syntax is more readable
