Default Excel 2003 unites csv file row contents in a column A withsquares

Hello!
I exported a Windows Address book to a csv file in Windows Vista. Excel 2007
opens the file correctly, but Excel 2003 unites row contents in a column A
with squares betweel fields.
How to open the csv file in Excel 2003 correctly?

Dmitry


It sounds like a font incompatibility. The squares often show up when
you try to use a symbol from one font in a different font that doesn't
have that symbol. So it just defaults to a square. And then I would
guess Excel 2003 isn't recognizing that symbol for doing a delimited
import from csv.

It works properly for me, with Outlook 2003 and Excel 2003. Perhaps
going from a 2007 address book to 2003 is a problem?
