printing a file (created in a procedure) in hebrew language

in vb.net 2003, i have a project (for a store -in israel) in which I want to print a receipt. I write the receipt in a file for which i use the stream writer . The file contains hebrew headings and variables containing hebrew. when it prints it looks like gibberish. What can I do. Help! I am despairing.!

Thanks for any help!!!

Because you use the streamwriter, I think it produces a text file
And I dont think text file characters include Hebrew...

As for a solution, sorry, I don't know.

Thanks a lot for your quick answer

Maybe...Where does the text come from A textbox

If you made your application using PHP online it would work (and I could help you with that if you didnt know PHP)...But I doubt you want an online application...

thanks again Geek Squad for your answer. You are right about my not be interrested in using on line. The file is indeed printed from a text box. I also tried to print with the graphic option (meant for pictures) but then it gave an error message that there not enough memory

All the best
