Hi Folks,
I am using an up-to-date version of Excel 2003. I am looking at files with
Hindi characters in it. However, when I select the cells with Hindi text, the
contents of the box in the forumla textbox at the top has English characters
in it. So when I copy and paste the text to a Word document or something the
text that appears in the formula bar is what is pasted and not the Hindi text
that appears in the cells. When I am looking at Chinese characters though,
the value in the formula bar matches what I see in the cell and the
characters copy and paste properly as well. So basically, I think my question
is what do I need to do to make the formula bar value match the value I see
in the cells? Then it should copy and paste fine I am led to believe. I have
added all the languages necessary in MS Office Language tools in the
Start>Programs section of my XP Pro. The following are all the languages and
fonts that this happens with:

Bengali Bangala 21 February
Hindi Shivaji01
Kannada SHREE-KAN-0850
Marathi Shivaji01
Telugu eLalithaMedium

Thanks ahead of time folks!
