    Saving from a program into .XLS with Cyrilic Carachters

    Hi,

    I'm new... :-)
    Already have a problem...
    In a program i'm saving a document into .XLS format.
    The document has Latin ( English ) and Cyrilic ( Russian ) carachters.
    While viewing the doc...all is ok. when saving it...the Russiian characters get messed up and become just symbols.
    The 'Regional&language settings' are OK. I can write in Russian into Excel. save it as well.

    I know the problem reside in the 'Saving into Excel format' process.
    So i wanted some help on if it is possible to change or reshape the data after the save....or any other suggestion

    Thanks in advance
    ;-)

    it looks like its possible to change the default code page but exactly where depends on version of office

    Thanks for the help...it directed me towards the answer wich ifound but need a last help.
    i found taht there's no 'Accented' Russian fonts in Excel...

    How do i add a font to excel ( not via the windows fonts folder, as it is already there )?


    Thank you all
    ...And more specificaly the one who answered and the one who will answer
