I am facing an issue with setting a value of Excel Cell.
I get data from a table cell in MS-Word Document(dcx) and print it on output console.

Problem is that the data of the cell is just a word, "Hour", with no apparent other leading or trailing printable character like white-spaces. But when I print it using python's print() function, it shows some unexpected character, more like a small "?" in a rectangle.

I don't know where does it come from.

And when I write the same variable that holds the word, "Hour", to an Excel cell it shows a bold dot(**.**) in the cell.

What can be the problem?

Any help is much appreciated.

I Am Using Python 3.2 And PyWin32 3.2 On Win7.
Thanks.
