    In D2009 and later: yes, there is. PChar is a pointer to a Char which is a unicode character (a WideChar). And PAnsiChar is a pointer to a AnsiChar, which is – as the name implies – an ANSI character.

    EDIT: For pre-2009 versions of Delphi PChar and PAnsiChar are exactly the same. They both point to an (Ansi) character.
