special characters

I have a field with an upside down question mark chr(191). When we do a select on it, the character shows up as a normal question mark chr(63). I found this out by doing

SELECT fld1 ascii(fld1)

and it showed:

? 191

Since the upside down character is what is really in the database, how can I show it when I do a query.

Thanks
Randy
