Text Import Wizard: Default File Origin Resolution

W

wes.strange

I had an issue with several users that had the 'File Origin' setting
defaulting to "932 : Japanese" instead of "437 : OEM United States".
The set the default 'File Origin' you can add this key for Excel 2003.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Excel\Options]
"DefaultCPG"=dword:000001b5
