From: Jay Freedman on 5 Feb 2010 11:29 If the characters really are Greek characters, it probably means that the Symbol font was applied to the text. Try selecting everything and changing the font to Times New Roman or Arial.

From: Louisq on 5 Feb 2010 12:08 Dear JoAnn, It is in Greek not jibberish. Her is the text. It looks greek to me. No pun intended. Sender created the document in Word 2000 and the other receivers have 2000 as well but I have 2007. It is really baffling for our hospital. I have never seen this happen. Thanks for your help.

Dear Colleagues, I tried selecting all and trying Times New Roman but it comes up with little squares. I won't let me choose other fonts.. Thanks.
