Converting an Excel file with special characters to a CSV with these preserved -
i trying convert excel spreadsheet contains special characters such "ñ" not preserved when save csv file using simple 'save > csv' approach in excel.
is there method doing preserve these characters?
thanks, simon
i came across issue when trying import mysql.
there couple of ways round it, best create own delimiters save standard text.
depending on how many columns there - might want number of ways, 1 way or @ end of data a1 & "," & b1 & "," etc - or use iterative functions make dragging down.
once have string - put equals @ front , should concatenate lot.
you can move rows new sheet , save text. you'll have pure csv, without of nasty unicode problems occur.
hope helps
