ShowBalloon method displays corrupt text

Hi 

I have tried using a few methods for displaying the text inside a balloon.

Both end up displaying the balloon but with corrupt text.

Firstly using the ChartFX.ShowBalloon method, for example:

Chart1.ShowBalloon "Hi", 50, 50

This displays a a balloon with funny looking square blocks. I assume there

is a character mapping error.

Using this method sometimes also displays the balloon outside of the

IExplorer window.

If I refresh this page a few times (about 4) this causes a Dr Watson error,

and IE crashes.

The other method is trapping the LButtonDblClick event and changing the

hText property.

This also displays the balloon but brings up funny square characters for the

text.

Any ideas?
