I use Access 2000. I SendObject my report to snapshot file as attached
file in output e-mail. Problem is every numeric character (0-9) is missing
in snapshot file. If I print my report directly to printer or preview, every
characters are shown correctly. How to solve this problem, please.

TIA,
Albert
 
Is there any chance you could send a screenshot, or a page of the snapshot
output, so we can see exactly what you mean? At face value this seems very
bizarre.

Bryan,

I'm having trouble with my ISP so I can't google this issue,
but the missing digits problem has something to do with a
funny Arabic registry setting. I think there is French KB
article on the issue. Maybe you can have better luck
researching this than I've had.
 
I can't seem to find the reference Marsh. Maybe one of the other MVPs knows
where to look. I did a search on the microsoft kb site and I came up dry for
anything like this problem. Google didn't produce much additional help
either.

I finally got to google the newsgroups for Arabic Digits.
Here's a copy of a good response from Cheryl Fischer
on what looks like the same subject:

=======================================
This problem comes up occasionally. It was resolved by
"Guylaine ([email protected])" earlier this year.
Following is a complete copy of his post.

Begin quoted material:
The fix is quite simple but still strange ...

For some reason the registry key 1025 is set to ON
(concerning arabic language) and the arabic languag
is not taken care of ...

You either turn it OFF :
Key : HKEY_USERS\<<user
identity>>\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Common\LanguageRessources\1025
(As to be done for every user on the machine)

or install the arabic language (good for everyone):
Control Panel
Regional settings
General tab
Check the arabic language
Accept and reboot

I found it on Microsoft French site KB469516:
