I don't think that's completely correct -- looking at the freexl
documentation it seems that only some xls file versions are utf8, and
others have a codepage indicating the encoding which needs to be read
from the xls metadata:

Hi Nyall and Andreas,
it seems to me GDAL/OGR [1] reads XLS and XLSX files with the relative
proper encoding [2] and ogrinfo outputs the te

Hi all,
Thank you Nyall for checking the situation around codepage and
freexl/OGR.
Let's plan to improve the situation around spreadsheet data loading in
future OGR and QGIS versions.
We can start with a QEP collecting all the requirements around the
spreadsheet data loading and an easy co

Yes - I also assume it is a limitation of OGR or FreeXL. I was hoping
that some secret OGR opening option, environment variable or sidecar

Hi,
Seems like when I load the same file from the newer .xlsx format then
the encoding is fine.
Now I need to find a way how to batch-convert all of the many .xls to
.xlsx files automatically.
Still I find it disturbing that QGIS doesn't allow me to load the older
.xls files with correct e
Hi again,
I tried to set the layer encoding after the layer merging, but it fails
;-(
And before the layer merging I cannot set the encoding in the model,
because it only accepts a single layer as input, and not multiple
layers.
So it seems that I will have to set the correct encoding righ
Hi,
I have a bunch of MS Excel .xls files in the old format (hundreds of
files), not the new .xlsx format.
The content of the .xls files seems to be UTF-8 encoded, but QGIS loads
them with some LATIN-x encoding - all of the non-ASCII-characters look
garbled.
I want to process these files w
