Dec 4, 2009 #2 gmmastros Programmer Feb 15, 2005 14,901 US I assume you were saving right from SQL Server Management Studio. If so... When you right click your result set and click "Save Results As", you can select the type and give it a file name, but... Take a close look at the save button. There is a little down arrow to the right of the word "Save". When you click the down arrow, you get a menu with: Save Save With Encoding Click "Save With Encoding" For Available Encoding, pick ANSI. -George "The great things about standards is that there are so many to choose from." - Fortune Cookie Wisdom Upvote 0 Downvote
