The Chinese, Japanese and Korean code pages ( 932, 936, 949 and 950) use two 
byte sequences for some characters and a single byte for some others (most 
notably the ASCII-7 range). There are some complications - for example, where 
a double byte character is being sent through a CHAR (not CHAR *) interface 
that eventually needs to pass the single CHAR on to an interface taking a 
WCHAR, then the CHAR is treated as if it were in CP1252, and for symmetry in 
such cases the reverse conversion does the same thing.
