Invalid characters in Excel
 

Hi all,

How can I stop Word, and I assume Excel, auto-converting ... into the
special ... single character (Ascii 133)? Or alternatively, is there any
way I can prevent Excel from accepting characters that visual basic can't
handle? At the moment we export to a psv file and the special character
causes the code that reads it to fail.

Thanks in advance.

Never heard of this in Excel. Perhaps a bad assumption. What characters
get converted?
