Now I will make your life even harder :-) Many Unicode algorithms like segmentation or collation require random access... So you do need random access or bidirectional iterator. Bottom line... Don't bother. It is better to use Unicode in first place :-)   Artyom Beilis -------------- CppCMS - C++ Web Framework: http://cppcms.sf.net/ CppDB - C++ SQL Connectivity: http://cppcms.sf.net/sql/cppdb/
