Access 2000 and Chinese font(s)

bob
Im having a wierd chinese font issue in Access 2000.

I installed the chinese support for access 2000, have all the windows stuff
setup, even have 10-12 other chinese fonts installed. I made a new text
field, in one of my tables. Pasted some chinese text in the field(datasheet
view), and the chinese text is sideways. The chinese character is flipped
90degrees. Ive tried different fonts, no difference. Ive typing in
characters(not just pasting from another source), and it still gets entered
sideways. Im assuming there must be a setting somewhere for it, but i cant
find anything on this issue. Anyone ever seen this or perhaps have a
suggestion.
thanks,
B.B.

Hello,

I'm using Chinese version of Windows. We will have a font with its usual
name and one with "@" as a prefix. The font with the usual name shows the
character as it is, while the font with @ shows it and prints it out
sideways.

So choose the one with the normal name. Can this now solve your problem?
