Hi Russell,

> I have a client that has a list of 15 symbols they want to use "in fields" including Pi, Lambda, Delta, Summation, etc. Has anyone addressed this?

You can change the FontCharSet for the textbox to Greek. Here's a sample that shows all available characters in your code page:
_Screen.AddObject("txt","textbox")
_screen.txt.Fontcharset = 161
For t=32 to 255
	_screen.txt.value = _screen.txt.value + Chr(t)
EndFor 
_screen.txt.Width = _Screen.Width
_screen.txt.Visible = .T.
It won't work if you need to combine this with accented characters, though, or if the symbols are not Greek.
