I'm having trouble with an ascii character...

°

....getting turned into ...

°

....when I write it to a file and open in Excel. It looks fine in
notepad, but excel mucks it up. I can only guess it's a Ascii to UTF8
problem.

Does anyone have any idea, or perhaps a lesson on strings they'd like
to share?

Thanks,
Chad

This is not an ASCII character (ASCII is only 7 bit). It is probably from an
8 bit extension of ASCII such as Windows-1252 or ISO-8859-1. Can you post
your code?

Cheers,
