[EpiData-list] technical question on transferring cyrillic letters from epidata dataset to spss

Hello, My colleagues in Kazakhstan have entered data. The personal identifier that I need to link the records to another database includes numbers and Cyrillic letters. The letters are not exported correctly from Epidata, neither when saved as an excel-file or as an text-file. I would like to do the analysis in SPSS. I hope someone has experience with this and knows a solution on how to export Cyrillic letters into SPSS! Thanks in advance, Susan van den Hof
