Default How do I get symbols to display in mail merge

How do I get symbols to display in mail merge.
The symbols are the copyright, registered tradmark and tradmark. They are
not in a specific place but could be anywhere. I have tried saving the txt
datasource to rtf format and then inserting into word doc so the datasource
is a word doc but the symbol is corrupted from the text to to the rtf. In the
text datasource it looks like:

"Report1","Subject1", ...
"xxReport","Itemxxx® description",... Which is correct.

I can't understand why word does not recognize these symbols. I get a
backwards
squiggly E. instead. I set the language to be English. Do I need to change
the code page? How is that be done?

Thank you

Thanks!
