How to print Bullets in email notifications generated from Workflow

Hi

We have a requirement to print bullets in Workflow notifications.

I am using this value in the database package.

v_blt           CONSTANT VARCHAR2(25) := '\342\200\242';

(I got this value by cut and paste of the bullet from MS Word into vi editor on the server, and this thas worked for other custom notifications in R12)

In R12, the bullet is coming out nicely both in Worklist notification and email notifications (in MS Outlook).

In 11i the bullet is coming out nicely in Worklist notification only. But when the notification is arriving as an email in my inbox it is printing a a question mark?
