Hi there, I have a speadsheet that uses Wingdings in a userform. I use Chr(254) & Chr(168) to simulate checkboxes.
This all works fine for every machine that this spreadsheet runs on (using Office 2010)
However, I have one machine that is refusing to display these characters. Instead, a black 'diamond' with a ? is displayed...
I have checked that Wingdings is installed. It is. When I open the userform up in the VB window, it is showing the correct characters. Very strange!
I can even get the Wingdings characters to appear in a cell in a spreadsheet, but NOT when the userform launches.... Just on this one machine...
The only thing I can think of is that the Windows 10 was originally German language and I removed it and installed English. I'm pretty sure that the Wingdings were working before then...
Has anyone got any ideas where this conflict might be coming from?
If you can help, I'd be very grateful... this is driving me bonkers
