Numbers won't display in report

Access 2000 on XP Home w/all current updates, Office 2K also installed

When I run a report on either a table or query, my fields which only
contain numbers will not display. Fields containing text display
correctly.

I've changed the field format(s) back and forth between text and
number with no change in output.

If I add a text character to the field containing a number,
(example: A305) only the "A" shows.

Even the page numbers and date on the report page do not display.

If I output the report to Word or Excel, all the data, including
numbers are visible.

I have uninstalled and re-installed the program, no change.

Any ideas on how to remedy this?

Thanks Allen.

I actually stumbled on that post while I was searching for a solution
this morning. It was about printing, apparently the "view" was fine,
so I passed it up. After you mentioned it, I revisited the post,
solved the problem. This was the solution in this case:

I can preview the data on the report but for some reason, when I go to
print it, there isn't any data on the page. The lines, headers, and
the correct number of pages are there.

For some reason the registry key 1025 is set to ON (concerning arabic
language) and the arabic language is not taken care of ...

You either turn it OFF :
Key : HKEY_USERS\<<user
identity>>\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Common\LanguageRessources\1025
(As to be done for every user on the machine)

The database is only used for about 3 months each year for an event
registration. It worked fine last year when I closed shop...

In the meatime, I have a web client who needed some of her contact
info in Arabic and I was mucking around with fonts, character sets and
languages. That is probably when the problem was created.
