I have a problem where characters from the extended ascii character set get
converted to Japanese characters during the mail merge process. My data
source is a word document, as there is a known problem with these characters
in txt files. The whole process is run using the Word API. It only appears to
happen with certain combinations of these characters. If I open the data
source, word prompts me to select a character set to mak the document
readable, the default is Japanese. I assume this same conversion is happening
during the merge.
Any ideas on how I can stop the conversion.
