Would like to use the block character from codepage 437 without changing codepages chr(219)=? and chr(255)= blank space

VFP9 uses codepage 1252. I am not sure what the implications would be of changing the codepage in existing applications. I would just like to create a simple progress bar that does not use any screen real estate. For example:

WAIT REPLICATE(CHR(219),50)+REPLICATE(CHR(255),50) WINDOW nowait

Is there any way to map a character to a different codepage.
