I use Office X for Mac on my MacBook. I work in the UK and Russia. I
have had to live with files in Russian opening with dashes (-) instead
of characters. Has this problem been solved yet? I saw the following
thread in the archive which was not optimistic. I should add that the
problem holds for Word and Powerpoint as well as Excel. Your answer
suggests that there is a solution for Word?
"Paul,
Thanks for your mail. Mac Excel X supports Mac Roman characters and, if
registered as Japanese or when using Japanese Excel X, Mac Japanese
characters.
Russian/Cyrillic characters won't display correctly as you have seen. I
don't know of any work around. However, we are aware of customer
interest in
expanding the characters supported by Mac Office applications and are
looking into it.
