Hi there,

I am currently struggling in forcing Word to show a UTF-8 encoded document. The 
generated document is a normal web page with generated content from a mysql 
database.
When I remove the header commands, the document with proper russian characters 
is displayed fine in the browser, but when I add
[CODE]
  header ("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-word;charset=utf-8");
  header ("Content-Disposition: 
attachment;filename=questionnaire_".date("Ymd_his").".doc");
[/CODE]
, Word opens and displays the information as chinese letters instead of 
russian. This also happens for spanish and french special characters, they are 
also incorrectly displayed.

Any clues how I can force Word to display UTF-8 correctly?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Best regards,

Sascha
