Hi, I am getting data from a database, containing special characteres (in
spanish). After that, I want to write down this data to an ascii file
(.csv). When this file is open with excel, the resulting data on cell
(strings) does not keep the same special characteres instead of that appear
strange characters. Here I want to show the same characters as stored on
the database.
I am using fput ($fp,"string") to write data to the csv file.
Does somebody deal with this ? please let me know.
