Hello Charles,

 CS> Open Control Panel and select "Regional and Language
Options".  Click 
 CS> the "advanced" tab and scroll through the available code
pages.  Make  
 CS> sure code page 437 is checked off.  On my system both code page 437 and 
 CS> 850 are checked.  If that doesn't work, you may be missing a system font 
 CS> or are using the wrong system fonts.  That quite commonly happens when 
 CS> upgrading from Win9X to XP.  The only cure for that is a repair install 
 CS> of XP.

Thanks for the info. I changed my language setting to English (US)
from English (Canadian) and that changed my code page to CP437. All
better.. :)

 Ttyl :-),
