char

string

Is there any way to do this? This is what I am trying to do:

char s[] = { 'a', 'b' };
label.SetWindowTextW(s[1]);

label is CStatic typed, _UNICODE is defined. Any help would be appreciated.

UPD: Tried to use CString(s[1]), it works for ASCII characters but others won't work. E. g. for the ? it returns |.
