German letters...

Hi all...

I have an odd setup with SuSE. I'm using 9.1 with a German keyboard but all
the software I use is in English. BUTTT I write allot about German stamps so
I need the German letters. I can type German letters in, üöä߀ and so on.

The problem is with my wife's system. She uses WP4.2 in English. I save
something that she writes as an ASCII file which shows the German fine on her
dos system. But when I transfer it to my SuSE system all the German letters
show up as either small squares or just blanks.

Any ideas on how to fix this? (other than getting a new wife <G>)

TIA!


JIM
