From 4c063d6b0148328e2fc937a3580319cc7943d982 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin Renvoize Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2024 05:42:41 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Bug 33635: Add BOM to report exports as CSV When you export a report as CSV excel will not recognise that it's encoding is utf-8 unless there is a correct Byte Order Mark prepended to the file. This patch adds such a BOM to the output file allowing Excel to treat the file correctly.
