Maybe only Germans have that problem - but in order to get it work with diacritical marks, i need to implement an utf8_decode-Function.

I implemented it just like this:

Line 184

$output=utf8_decode($output);

and Line 206

$table=utf8_decode($table);

regards
Christian

Until (unless?) this gets implemented in the module proper, people who wish to avoid hacking their copy of the module may prefer to override it using a theme function - copy the theme_views_bonus_export_csv() and/or theme_views_bonus_export_doc() functions into your template.php file, change the names to phptemplate_views_bonus_export_csv() and phptemplate_views_bonus_export_doc() respectively, and add the utf_decode() steps (above) before the respective print statements.

Note that there appear to be some more suggestions for changing character encoding on #187774: Provide correct CSV encoding and headers, which also raises the possibility of approaching the problem from the other direction and informing Excel that the file is encoded in UTF-8.

I've committed the other issue. Hopefully that fixes it. Reopen if there are still problems.
