Thanks, James.  Still not change, however.

Dear Edward

I have tried this in VDos and in VDosPlus but I see no change.  What
should I be looking for?

vDosPlus:

In autoexec.txt include:

chip 1252

In config.txt change

font = WhateverFontNameYouUse

to

font = -WhateverFontNameYouUse

with a minus sign immediately to the left of "Whatever"

This causes vDos to display line-draw characters instead of whatever
characters are native to the font.

Again, not tested in vDosPlus.
