     I am in despirate need of some assistance.
I am using Turbo C 2.0 in EGAHI mode (640x350).
 
I am writing a software package for Foreign Language Translation.
The problem I have just encountered is that I cannot access the extended
ASCII characters (128-256).
 
Borland tells me that Turbo C does not support these characters in
graphics mode.
 
For Example:
  I want to print ASCII 132 
  I enter the value into an unsigned char.
  When I use outtextxy(1,1,ch) is get gargage.
  I can varify that the 132 is actually in the variable ch.
 
I am hoping someone else out there has already found a solution to this
problem.
 
Thanks in advance
