list csv export

[arie]

Hi,

I've got a small issue when i want to export datas form a list. Because some of the datas contain accents, I get some problems with them: é instead ?, ....

Any solution?

Where do you get those characters?
This usually is depending on the character setting in your program which is displaying the csv file (should be UTF8).

I.m using Microsoft excel on a mac.

But what i'm not understand is why i get correct encoding when i set Excel CSV?

This is because Excel can't handle standard CSV-UTF8-files correctly. You can't just open, you have to import.
Same with saving: Excel can't create a standard CSV (comma separated) file with UTF8 character set.
