    I am converting dbf database to excel. By the way, it turns Polish letters into special characters. How to convert them back to Polish letters in Excel? Only uppercase letters are used.
    How to convert special characters into Polish letters: ? = Ł, ?= Ę, ? = Ż, ? = Ą, ? = Ć, Ó = Ń, ? = Ó, ? = ź
    I am not a programmer, I use excel, word as an intermediate.

    You can as follows (if you already know all the characters). You run "Find and replace" there you enter the first character, eg ?, and in the second field Ł. With find> replace you play in the exchange.
    I can see that I checked for too long - I have already been warned.

    I know that, but it takes too long. I was thinking of some faster way - with one click ...

    In Word and Excel there is also an option "Replace all" (I mean it was, mine is "old" because Office 2007, maybe now "new" is not). Well, however, such a substitution can be applied to individual characters, so you would have to enter each character separately and then "Replace all" and so in turn for all characters ...

    That's not the point either :) This is how you know, so I do. But my point is to be able to enter "swap all pairs" once and then give "swap all". I don't know if any macro? But I don't accept special characters ...

    You have an active Scandinavian keyboard, in the lower right year you click on the keyboard or badge like pl, etc., add a Polish keyboard and remove others, check the language in the main settings. There it can be assigned some other, you add Polish when it is not there and change it to the main one. you delete others. Then you enter exela languages, check what you have there, add Polish and create others ...

    PRL - you are closest to solving the topic. But there is one problem. At least for me - it doesn't accept the signs: ?, ?, ?, ?, Ó, Ó, ?, ?, ?. She puts a "?" Sign everywhere.

    How do you enter these characters? Use "insert symbol" and select "Latin-1 (complement)" in the subset. Your stamps are there.

    The VBA editor will not accept any characters other than those in the table according to the locale.
    Check through AscW what code they have and proper basis.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around converting special characters in a DBF database to Polish letters when exporting to Excel. Users suggest utilizing the "Find and Replace" function in Excel and Word, which allows for character substitution, although it can be time-consuming if done manually for each character. Some users inquire about a more efficient method, such as using macros or VBA functions to automate the process. A VBA function example is provided, which replaces specific special characters with their Polish equivalents. Additionally, users discuss the importance of having the correct keyboard settings to input Polish characters effectively.
