MS ACCESS reports is not showing numbers

S

I'm seeing a very weird problem...
My reports in access are not showing any numbers...

it doesn't matter if the numbers are part of a date, text, label, if it is a
count, or if it was the page number...

Has anyone seen this error before???

thanks

I think you have run out of "number" toner/ink and have only "letters"
remaining :)

This has been posted a few times a year and I had to search Google for the
thread with the answer.
=== What I Found ==============
Hi all,


The fix is quite simple but still strange ...


For some reason the registry key 1025 is set to ON (concerning arabic
language) and the arabic language is not taken care of ...


You either turn it OFF :
Key : HKEY_USERS\<<user
identity>>\Software\Microsoft\­Office\9.0\Common\LanguageRess­ources\1025
(As to be done for every user on the machine)


or install the arabic language (good for everyone):
Control Panel
Regional settings
General tab
Check the arabic language
Accept and reboot


I found it on Microsoft French site KB469516:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://www.microsoft.c...
kb/france/articles/F19/5/16.as­p


If you have the problem I'm sure you can read french !!


=== End of what I found =======

Thank you for your response...

I would love that my problem was that toner/ink issue... : )

I'm using Win XP and it looks like the language is handled a little
different...
I could not find how to add the arabic language (And I assume that I'm using
it) and two, I could not locate the registry entry that was reported...

I think that I will reformat that machine completely and see if that fix the
problem... I can not think in other solution for this...

The registry setting might not be "\9.0\" depending on your version of
Access.
