    Have a vb.net application which uses templates created with Excel. These Excel files can be uploaded to our web application. Everything is fine but having a problem with cell omments: I created a template with Excel (swedish) and added a comment to cell C4 in Excel (can post the template to you if you if you want to). This comment includes some scandinavian characters. These are not displayed as scandinavian characters once the template has been uploaded to our web application. I'm using FP 3_0_2001_2005 and the template was created with Excel 2003 (11.8146.8132) SP2 on a computer with Finnish language settings. The browser was used with Swedish as the first language.

    Can you post a small project reproducing this that uses your excel file for us to debug?  Or just attach the excel file.  You posted this in the Spread for WindowsForms section but you mention a web application.  Are you using the Spread for WebForms instead?

    mikko -



    I was able to reproduce this and have written it up as a bug for the development team to fix for the next release.
