Hi, Is anyone else experiencing the following problem: - Take a Hebrew excel file created on Windows 98 - edit it with Openoffice on Linux (locale he_IL.UTF-8) - Send it back to the person who sent it to you - They try to open it and see squares instead of Hebrew letters (what probably indicates that it was transformed to Unicode which is not available on Windows 98, but I'm just guessing) The same file can be opened on Windows 2000 (that supports Unicode) in the same office version. This happens repeatedly - i.e. every time I edit an excel sent from a Windows 98 and send it back the letters are shown as squares. Any ideas what's happening or how to solve it?
In what format did you save it from Oo ? Oo uses only unicode internally.
