      It's probably the cultureinfo of the database rather than the font, fixing it - no idea sorry.

        I set the collation for the database to arabic before migrating the database using DTS and the data still unreadable.I tried and copy the data to an email and send it to another employee in the company.In outlook He set the encoding to Arabic(Windows) and it becomes readeable.So I think I have two choices to solve the problem: 1-Set the Encoding in Access to Arabic(Windows):I couldn't find any Encoding settings in Access. 2-Set the Encoding in code for that field in the dataset. Please if any one knows how to reach one of these solutions tell me about it.
