in reply to printing Chinese, Japanese, french Text in excel using perl

Your symptoms seem the same as the ones I experienced when writing Re: Extracting Chinese characters from Excel. I shouldn't be surprised if you needed some VBA to solve your problem. It was the only way I could make it work. You won't be able to do this with things like Spreadsheet::WriteExcel; you will need Win32::OLE.

    @All : Thank you! I just did it by using the decode function in Encode module. 
    use Encode qw(decode encode); 
$str = decode("utf8",$str);

    This did it all! Thanks again!
