Importing .cha files to Nvivo

[Leonid Spektor]

Kevin,

	.cha are plain text files encoded in Unicode UTF-8 format. If Nvivo like MS Word allows to select text encoding during opening file process, then you can just select Unicode UTF-8 and it should open .cha files correctly.

We’ve tried changing the .cha files to .txt. files (using Notepad ++), but then accents (for French/Spanish e.g.) are lost or changed to numbers etc. The only way we’ve found so far is by copying .cha contents into Word individually, then saving a transcript as .doc. Does anybody know of a quicker way load. Cha files into Nvivo? Any advice would be most gratefully received.
