write.csv covert Åland to <c5>land
It looks like an encoding problem. It works fine for me with R encoding set to UTF-8 Here is part of my sessionInfo() results [1] LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=C [3] LC_TIME=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=en_CA.UTF-8 [5] LC_MONETARY=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=en_CA.UTF-8 I would suggest issuing the command sessionInfo() and seeing what your encoding is.

Hi there, I tried to export the names of country to a csv file with write.csv(). In the resulted file, ?land was coverted to <c5>land. Is there any way could prevent this happening? Thanks!
