[AccessD] Strange happenings in Memo fields

My users have complained of typing 4 periods in a row .... turns into what
looks like a bold pipe |

If you search the tables for a pipe, you will not find one, yet searching
for 4 periods will find the strange character.

This happens in both (bound) forms and tables

I don't know why though :(

  Has anyone had text entered into a memo field suddenly change?  My client
claims that there is no pattern to it, but some of the text in his memo
field seems to turn into 'Chinese type characters'.  They are using Access
2002 with a SQL backend.
