Hi all, I have an application that outputs a csv file in the charset UTF-8 and opens it in Excel. Currently I'm having problems with Excel and UTF-8. When it opens a file with a umlaut character. The character fails to display correctly. Does anyone know if it is possible to instruct excel 07 on the client side (windows) to open the file in UTF-8 format. I've tried outputting Byte order mark to the file and outputting the following bit of code below but no use. I was wondering Has anyone come across this before and might know a solution.
<code>
output-http-header("Content-Encoding", "UTF-8").
output-http-header("content-disposition","Attachment~;filename=myfile.csv").
output-content-type ("application~/vnd.ms-excel~; charset=UTF-8":U ).
</code>
<code>
output-http-header("Content-Encoding", "UTF-8").
output-http-header("content-disposition","Attachment~;filename=myfile.csv").
output-content-type ("application~/vnd.ms-excel~; charset=UTF-8":U ).
