Save TXT to Word using Courier New "extended" chars
Hi experts!
I need to save text to a Word doc from my appl. using a monospaced font (aka old MS Linedraw)
for this I have chosen Courier New, but how can I access the "extended" chars
in this font? It appears to me that these are only available from inside Word.
I need the special chars to build/draw a box (DOS-like) : ┌ ┐┬└ ┘┴
If there is a solution to this, please add a little code-sample.
Regards
