Icon download to excel

Hi All,

During an ALV list display I use a few icons for a few fields, say

Im displaying vbeln-posnr-matnr-netwr, I use icon(icon_okay, icon_cancel etc) for matnr.

So when the list is displayed everything is fine, but when I download this list to an excel these icons are not recognized and hence they are being displayed as wild characters (these are the icon codes) like @7Q@, @CA@ et. al.

Any work arounds for this problem will be appreciated <<removed_by_moderator>>

Regards,

Narendra.
