Default Japanese text lost when save as tab delimited text file

I need to save an Excel (2007) file that has some Japanese text to a
tab delimited text file. But Excel converts all the Japanese
characters into question marks.

Notepad has no problem saving the correct Japanese characters, though
it displays them as little boxes. When I copy Japanese characters from
Notepad to Excel, they display as the correct Japanese characters.

How can I get Excel to stop converting Japanese characters to question
marks when saving as tab delimited text?


Thanks,

Greg
