Error when opening a .csv file #451

Open SWPPWS opened 5 years ago

SWPPWS commented 5 years ago

Hi, Just wondering whether I can get any help on opening a csv file (from excel)? It keeps coming up with an error message, saying that the file is not UTF-8 encoded. I changed this setting through tools --> weboptions--> encoding.

Any help is much appreciated.

Jupyter cannot open any text files that are not utf8-encoded. If this file uses a different encoding, it must be re-encoded to utf8 to work with Jupyter. It does not relate to your browser's encoding settings.
