Bad encoding when importing iCal and Nokia phone data.

[Guest]

Hi,
I am trying to synch my cell phone with my google calendar.
I have office 2007 installed, my operating system is windows xp sp2.
I have Hebrew language support installed.
When synchronizing either my phone or google calendar to outlook, Tasks and
calendar events are written in hebrew are shown as garbled text, as if
written in the wrong encoding.
I have been looking for options in outlook for changing the encoding, but
none are to be found...
Would appreciate any help in this matter.
Thank you very much.

Synching is completely the responsibility of the sync software. Outlook has
nothing to do with it.

Hi Brian,
What you say is true, and understandable in the case with synching to the
nokia phone. However, when i synch with google calendar, it is outlook which
does the synching (see tools->account settings->internet calendars).
This proccess doesnt work properly with hebrew encoding as well.
Is it possible that the error is on the side of google calendar?
Thanks again for the help,
Shay

I can't answer that, as I'm unfamiliar with either Outlook's Hebrew support
or Google's Calendar. Sorry.
