SYMPTOMS
When you paste certain characters into 16-bit applications, they become different characters. For example, using the English locale, if you copy the trademark symbol, and attempt to paste it into Word for Windows, it is pasted as an exclamation mark (!).



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT Workstation and Windows NT Server version 3.5. This problem was corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.5.
