In my application I display a statistics table containing the σ character in the header. When I do a cut and paste from the table the σ is pasted as s.

Okay, that worked with the Greek keyboard. Thanks. It's another good reason to move the customers over to Windows 7.

Preserving a string character, σ, when cutting and pasting from a table.

Solved!

I'm glad you got it working, but it really should have worked in XP as well as in Windows 7, and with CVI 2009 as well as with CVI 2010, as long as you use the Greek character set on the control.

For example, here's a basic .uir that I created in CVI 2009 with such a control. I was able to successfully copy the text from the control in this .uir and paste in onto Notepad, in both XP and Windows 7.
