We are in process of migrating from CF5 to CF 7.0. During this migration we are moving from character set iso-8859-1 to the default (utf-8). We are passing a chunk of text in a form field with "<br /> " in the text so that the same formatting which was on the originating page, would be shown on the action page. When we export the action page to an Excel format, even though we used ReplaceNoCase to eliminate the they are causing a problem in Excel in which there are Oriental characters (çç©) being displayed. If I do not pass the in the form field, or I add <meta http-equiv="Content-Typ!" content="application/msexcel; charset=iso-8859-1"> to the Excel export it fixes the problem. The first solution is a big rewrite, the second forces us to use an old character set. Does anybody know of a problem with the character set or Excel which is being fixed?
