When developing an application using VB6 which of the 2 versions of xtreme suite pro 9.51 should I use, the standard or the UNICODE?

Will I have a problem if I deploy the UNICODE OCX to a Windows 9x machine?

Help. Thanks

Use UNICODE if you need to support languages with wide characters such as Japanese. There is no problem using the UNICODE version of the OCX on Win9x machine.

Thanks. I always thought Win9X couldn't handle Unicode.

This brings up another question then, are there any reasons why one would want to use the non-UNICODE version instead of the UNICODE version? There has to be a reason the two are in separate files :)
