How to make Excel display multi-byte characters file name in InsightIQ CSV reports

Article Content


Instructions

Japanese or Chinese users of InisghtIQ 4.0.1 might not be able to correctly display file names with multi-byte characters in the CSV data usage report.

As shown below, multi-byte characters file name
 gets garbled in the InsightIQ CSV data usage report:

This is because Excel does not process multi-bytes characters as UTF-8 format by default, hence not displaying these characters properly. InsightIQ can correctly output the characters in UTF-8 format if we open the .csv file with notepad or notepad+++. We can see the multi-byte characters are correctly displayed.

If the user would like to use Excel for data review, the CSV data file has to be saved as a text file first, and then imported into Excel. From Excel's import wizard, the user needs to indicate the format as delimited data and UTF-8 format. After that the outputs will show in UTF-8 format correctly.
