Here's how I used to define escapes and form feeds... you should be able 
to adapt for copyright characters:


   define esc-num  int*4 = 27
   define esc      cha*1 = char(esc-num)[2:1]

   define ff-num   int*4 = 12
   define formfeed cha*1 = char(ff-num)[2:1]


I don't know why I defined the "-num" fields first. One might assume 
that these should work equally well:


   define esc      cha*1 = char(27)[2:1]
   define formfeed cha*1 = char(12)[2:1]


Further, I don't know why the byte extraction "[2:1]" is required, 
either. Seems like these ought to work:


   define esc      cha*1 = char(27)
   define formfeed cha*1 = char(12)


All I know is the original set of defines worked perfectly for years as 
the means to get "unprintables" into powerhouse defined items.

Once you have your copyright character in a defined item it should be 
easy to include it in a report.
