Default Excel Text Import creates garbage text

When importing a .txt file to Excel, most users have no problem. Another
user importing the same .txt file sees the text in the Wizard as jumbled
garbage text, resembling most of the original text, but random odd characters
in place of original. Any thoughts on cause and resolution?

Thanks
