UncompleteDir and UNICODE

If the string passed in parameter is in ANSI format, the result will be in ANSI format.
If the string passed in parameter is in UNICODE format, the result will be in UNICODE format.

Note: No compilation error occurs if the result of an ANSI string is assigned to a UNICODE string (and conversely). However, a WLanguage error will occur at run time.

See Managing UNICODE for more details.
