Hello,
OpenOffice Basic uses strings of Unicode (16bits) characters. Because it is not associated with a particular Operating System.
So you have to find the Unicode value for your character and use OpenOffice Basic language.
Example:
| Code: | Dim v As String
v = chr(&H03A8) ' greek letter Psi
MsgBox(v)
