One way is to I guess instead of putting the control in the template,
you create it in OnInitDialog().

something like this:
m_edtText.Attach(::CreateWindowExW(WS_EX_CLIENTEDG E, L"EDIT", L"",
WS_CHILD | WS_TABSTOP | WS_VISIBLE, 0, 0, 100, 100, m_hWnd, IDC_TEXT,
AfxGetInstanceHandle(), NULL));

Make sure you use the W function explicitly to have the edit control
use Unicode.

Rich Edit Controls 2.0 and later are internally Unicode-based so you
should be fine with that.

Of course to get full Unicode support you need Windows NT/2000/XP...

hope it helps.
