NoCharacter and UNICODE

If the string passed as a parameter is an ANSI string, the result will be an ANSI string.

If the string passed in parameter is in Unicode format, the result will be in Unicode format.

Note If the result of the NoCharacter function used on an ANSI string is assigned to a Unicode string (and vice versa), ANSI/Unicode conversion will be implicitly performed.

For more details, see Unicode management.
