SAS - Proc Report headline option issue

When I run the code below, it outputs a text file where the default hyphen for the headline option is replaced by the letter F. So I get a series of Fs dispayed across my report. Any idea what could be causing this? I've never run across this before and can't find any info about it...

proc printto print='c:\temp\test.txt';
run;

PROC REPORT DATA=SUM_2010 HEADLINE HEADSKIP MISSING nowd;
  COLUMNS field1 field2;

  DEFINE field1 / 'NUMBER OF things' FORMAT=COMMA20.0 WIDTH=25;
  DEFINE filed2 / 'VALUE of things' FORMAT=DOLLAR28.2 WIDTH=30;
  RBREAK AFTER/SKIP SUMMARIZE DOL;
  TITLE1 "something";
  TITLE2 "something something";
  TITLE3 "more something";
  TITLE4 "YEAR: 2010";
  RUN;
quit;

Try the formchar option - this affects horizontal and vertical lines in proc tabulate and proc report. This should provide more appealing output => options formchar="|----||---|-/\<>*"; (run it before the proc report).
