AFAIK there is no QDA program (at least not the more important ones)
that does support Unicode (and if, which Unicode? UTF-8, UTF-16?). A
recent customer asked me, so I did a small survey and asked many of the
program developers. Atlas.ti will support it in version 5.0 if I
understood Thomas Muhr, the author, correctly.
Please have in mind that Unicode is not supported by Windows 9x/ SE
(some errors) and WinME (more errors), only Win2000 and Win XP. (sorry,
I don't know what happens on MacOS or Linux). Unicode is only required
for languages that are syllable based, not those with different
alphabets (like Greek, Arabic, Hewbrew, Cyrillic) and character sets
(although I understand that is a challenge for program developers).
