    Characters not showing up as planned

    Console App in VB.net...

    The following line was intended to use Ascii characters (as shown in MSDN, "Chart 2 (codes 128-255)" to draw a box onscreen.

    The string shown here...
    VB Code:
    1. Console.WriteLine("¨X¨T¨T¨T¨T¨T¨[")

    was intended to draw the top line of a square (complete with corners) but when I run the code I actually get...

    Code:
    +-----+
    on the screen.

    Does anoyone know how to either change the Console's font easily (doubt if that possible) or know what the Console's codepage says I should be using?
