Hi Rocky: If you set your test computer as if it is a Japaness computer, changing the language settings and making sure the appropriate fonts are available, that will allow you to use the character sets and display it correctly. You have to re-install your version of Access selecting the Japanese defaults. You can acquire any language sets you wish to play with through the M$ update web site.

I have a routine which changes the captions of the labels and command button in the OnOpen event of a form and it works beautifully. However, I can't get the message boxes to display the Chinese characters. It displays ????? in place of the characters. The translations appear in the table as squares. That's ok. If I copy a translation directly into the code, it shows as ?????? Does anyone know offhand how to get foreign characters to display correctly in message boxes.
