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. Andy |

get converted? -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Andy" wrote in message ... Hi all, How can I stop Word, and I assume Excel, auto-converting ... into the special ... single character (Ascii 133)?
