[QUOTE="welshred, post: 1661934, member: 200925"] The file was downloaded to my Mac directly from a website and opened in Textedit. All the weird fonts are already showing in textedit even before it's opened in excel however if opened on a windows machine (again downloaded the same file from the same source) it opens in notepad and does not contain any funny characters nor does if then opened in excel (Windows) [/QUOTE]
