Re^3: WriteExcel unicode question

$cellvalue2=Encode::decode ('UCS-2BE',$cellvalue2)

Not sure whether it will solve your problem, but I would have tried 'UCS-2LE' (I have yet to see a big-endian Windows...)

To further debug the issue, I would `Dump $cellvalue2` using Devel::Peek, in order to see what the encoding actually looks like at the byte-level (see the `PV` output). Then compare that result against the individual encodings that would make sense in your context, taking into account that some mis-decoding or double encoding may already have happened at some other place in the processing chain...
