hi there!
I have to put activities in Arabic characters in Primavera P6. the options in "table font and row" do not suit my need. I mean i choose an Arabic font, script changes to Arabic and i can write in Arabic in "activity table" and "Gantt chart view" but in "activity detials" window,(and also in other parts of the programm) the values in "activity name" , are some meaningless symbols.
Is there any specific kind of a font (unicode or something) or I should make some changes in SQL sever and change the attributes of activity name field somewhere in SQL or ...?

Please Help me!
Thanks for your attention!
