Unprinted characters in a report

I have a contact management database which also handles
communications. I have saved a communication with Romanian characters
in it but when it comes time to print the report many of the
characters are replaced with '?'.

What is happening and is there any way of getting the report to
display correctly?

For example "Eºti tu bolnav" which means "Are you sick?" prints as "E?
ti tu bolnav".

I am using a bound text box to a memo field.

Thank you very much in advance
 
turned out that the problem was to do with leban's RTF control.

I missed the problem yesterday since it was displaying correctly on
the
forms where we were using the RTF control. On reports however we use a
plain
text copy and the control was making the substitution when we pulled
that
text.

So my solution is to use the RTF control in the reports also and not
to use
any plain text anywhere.

I.e. we were using leban's RTF control to save to the database in both
plain text and also rich text, but we were using the plain text copy
in our reports.
