    Russian text problems in Access 2000

    Hi,

    I am trying to enter Russian text in an Access 2000 form using the open code module to populate the form when opened. I am using Arial CYR and have tried other fonts but the text when pasted just shows lots of ????

    How do I get this font and others to work correctly?

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Regards CJ.

    Not 100% sure, but you may have to change the language of the keyboard.

      I can read it fine using the same font when opening the text in an xl or word file where I am copying from, just goes funny showing ????? in the code section when pasting into Access.

        There are two possiblities. Go to Tools - Options

        Under the Datasheet tab what is the font showing as the default?
        If this is correct then
        Under the Forms/Reports tab you may have to change the form and report template to one you've designed yourself. I'm not sure how to do this but I will try to find out if that turns out to be the problem.
