Upper ASCII characters in XyWrite under vDosXy

I've run into a variant of a problem I've had before with upper ASCII
characters in XyWrite. Instead of the characters displaying, I see
their ASCII numbers in square brackets. For example, instead of an
alpha, I see [294].
I understand that the problem has to do with the code page. I think I
need code page 437. (My settings file says
df la 437
which seems to be correct.) In the past I have encountered the problem
on some, but not all, hardware, and have solved it by following the
instructions at
http://www.xywrite.com/ttg/appnotes/app111.txt
But those instructions clearly don't apply to vDosXy. Is there any way
of solving the problem in vDosXy?
Thanks
Martin
