Hi all,
I am having a strange problem when display Japanese characters in excel.
I am setting the ContentType using setContentType("application/vnd-ms.excel; charset=Shift_JIS");
It seems that If I display only a few words then excel does not display the characters correctly, but If I display about 15 or over words then the characters are displayed fine.
Anyone have any idea why this is happening?
Thanks.
Richie

In case anyone is interested, the fix was to set both the contentType AND include <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/vnd.ms.excel; charset=Shift_JIS"> in the html output.
