I had; no luck. However, as I'm using a French version of MSWXP, telling the system to read upper ASCII as Cyrillic louses up the French-accented vowels. Worse, when you change from the "home" language, MS empties all your mail messages. And even worse, if I have to toggle like that between language-incompatible software: Russian, Arabic, Chinese, etc., I use that software increasingly seldom.
