Excel 2007 unicode / utf-8 problem. French special charachters uploading incrorrectly

Hi,

I have a feed that I upload to amazon.fr through an excel 2003 file with an add in that allows me to upload the data directly from the file.

All of the charachters / accents look absolutley fine my end but when they get to Amazon.fr
 à displays as à and  é displays as © and so on.

When somebody does teh sam eoperation from Amazon France on French version of excel this does not happen and the charachters display correctly!

I have tried:

-- pasting the data in to excel as special and choosing unicode.
-- changing to various fonts, including Arial Uncode MS

But the problem persists, anybodyhave any idea how I can solve this?

Thanks
