Need for Products Importer/Exporter that is not in CSV format

  • The currently product importer/exporter works around CSV files but CSV files natively in Excel do not support UTF-8/Unicode. After you make an export and open the file to make edits, after pressing save, all your UTF-8 characters will revert to question marks (?). I describe it in more detail in my post. Is it possible to have the importer/exporter be based on another format? Also how come the exporter supports CSV only while the importer allows for the use of other delimiters?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi superkot,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I have been on that page before amidst my searching but via the various file type targets I’ve chosen to save as for CSV (Comma Delimited), CSV Windows, CSV MacOS all still turn to question marks (?). I also have followed the web option selection to verify that indeed it was intended for Unicode UTF-8. I’m currently using Excel 2007 on my workstation. I have yet to confirm this is the case on a later version of Excel.
