<p>Hello fellow Xmodders</p><p>I have a challenge in exporting DNN User data to excel using XMOD. Generally this works perfectly with generating the xls file using a feed, but some of the fields in the DNN users table contains special danish chars which are formattet incorrectly into something very different (i.e. æ =&nbsp;æ).</p><p>Now I've run across formatting problems before, and that was solved by saving the chars correctly in the database, using nvarchar instead of varchar2 and using the correct UTF-8 to both save and retrieve data, but this time I'm not in control of the registration at all since it's fundamentally controlled by DNN.</p><p>So how can I properly format my feed to use the correct chars for my danish letters?</p><p>Kind Regards<br>Rune</p>
