Bill D -

It sometimes depends on what font/encoding you've got set in your browser. I've been able to see numerous such "high numbered" characters in previous trials, but my settings may have slipped back into something conventional.

If you really need full Unicode character representation, you can get the "International" utilities for Win2K and WinXP; but the last time I checked they are only available if you buy Server 2003 or later. I know you had to have a Server version; but I dont' recall whether the International stuff came with it, or was an "extra cost add-on."

If your webmeister has a recent Server version of Windows that has the "kit," you might talk him into installing it on your machine - and then nobody would understand anything you type. Or would that make a difference for either of us?
