Thanks Michael for the comment but that is what I am trying to do. I have
played with Properties->Font in a command shell (cmd.exe) without luck

Hello,
I would like to print a square root symbol using write(chr(251)); as I
could before SP3 for XP was installed on my PC.
Currently am getting a superscript 1 rather than the square root symbol
from write(chr(251)).
I've tried the following kind suggestions of Tomas Hajny, unfortunately
without success:
1. In a command shell I entered
CHCP 437 and then ran the program
2. Modified the source code to include the Windows unit and added line
setConsoleOutputCP(437);,
compiled and then ran the program.
I examined the registry settings in directory Codepage.
Name Data
(default ) (value not set)
...
ACP 1252
MACCP 10000
OEMCP 850
OEMHAL vgaoem.fon
Changed OEMCP to 437 and got an accented 'u'. Then restored
the system.
I wonder if anyone can suggest a solution to the problem.
Have you tried simply using a different font for the console ?
Michael.
