It's not always the same answer. Most of the time, you do

3. xxxA converts its argumets to Unicode and calls xxxW
    There are plenty of examples in the tree how this is done,
    look for stuff using MultiByteToWideChar(). A good example
    is DrawTextExA/W in dlls/user/text.c

As for the 1 & 2 they are valid approaches sometimes, but
it's best to stay away from them.  For most cases 3 works fine.

Let us know if you need any help.
