I hope you can see the red colour and also the 1/4 character immediately
before "/strong>"

The error itself (non-SGML characters) is not in question. However, the
display of the report seems to be an issue, because I see "#/strong>" in the
report, where # is the 1/4 character.

I'm using MSIE 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2...

BTW, when I send this, Outlook warns me that the message contains Unicode
and gives me the option of Unicode or not. I'm sending this with Unicode
