Odd characters on entire documents when opening
Hello,
When I download a document, everything is OK. However, when I try to open a document from Excel for the Web, the document is in a different language or odd characters are being used. Below is a sample and it is supposed to be English. Any ideas what is going on?
Well....I did what I probably should have done from the beginning. I rebooted my computer and voila! Problem solved. Thank you for the reply!

Hey wendtdc13, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Can you please let me know if this happens with only a specific file of yours or if it's affecting all of your Excel files?
Have you tried clearing your browser's cache or another browser by any chance?
Keep us posted!
I am getting the same issue on all my excel files. If I open them in dropbox protected view everything is normal. It's only on the excel for the web. any ideas?
