Hi,
I am dynamically creating a spreadsheet using a Perl program, I
simply create a <TAB> delimmited file with a .xls extension, when
opened I have the basic requirements of my excel spreadsheet, there is
one piece of information that I cannot replicate and that is how I can
force the Excel 'up arrow' symbol (character code 2193) in the
spreadsheet, simply putting 2193 does not represent an 'up arrow' when
the spreadsheet is opened, it reads '2193' literally - do I have to
quote it or something else or is it even possible...
help appreciated, Mark.
