If I run the following:

set y to «data utxt0061» as Unicode text
set x to «data utxt2011» as Unicode text
" " & (y as string)
" " & (x as string)
" " & y
" " & x

I get an error on the last line:

--> Can't make "-" into a string.


Shane,

Based on my experience, I would try this:

set y to «data utxt0061»
set x to «data utxt2011»

" " & y
-- " a"

" " & x
-- " -"

In case your need to do similar operations, declare the leftmost text as unicode text:

set z to «data utxt60B2»
" " & z
-- " ?"
-- wrong display in result pane.

(" " as Unicode text) & z
-- " 悲"
-- correct display
