George, thank you for explaining the DUSCII matter; I wondered what that
word was that JAWS spoke whenever I arrowed over one of those codes.
This list is a never-ending source of helpful information.

Hi Nadine,

I'm assuming you are importing a Word file.

From the Global menu, select the Word Importer.

In the resultant dialog, go to the "Unknown Character" list
box and select "Ignore".

Re-import your document and the "d+0010" should disappear.

Basically it appears that there is a character, hidden or otherwise,
which DBT does not recognise as a valid character, and so is displaying
a special value called "duscii" (similar to ascii).

George.
