I think I misunderstood the issue. You wrote:

" in notepad characters are showing correct"

It means Crystal Reports exports it properly.

In what application you see the incorrect characters Çéâà ë ?

Çéâà ë showing when exported in CSV format. if edit with notepad the same file characters are displaying as Çéâàë.

So the issue is with csv format export.

what is the default application on your machine to open .csv files?

It could be excel, notepad or something else.

You may attach a screenshot

On 64 bit machine the path should be:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\SAP BusinessObjects\Suite XI 4.0\Crystal Reports\Export\CSV

Added the keys which are not exists. updated the registry keys still the issue is not resolved.

(Updating)

I have added registry keys in my local machine where application hosted and tried from other machine browser still characters or not encoded properly.

Do I need to try in staging servers. Please confirm me.

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.. I could not find the \Suite XI 4.0\Crystal Reports\Export\CSV path in my machine as below.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP BusinessObjects\Suite XI 4.0\Crystal Reports\Export\CSV.

Can we do from coding end like setting any parameter or changing the encoding.
