Thanks for pointing me towards the .cpg file. I found an already-existing cpg file, opened it in a text editor, and manually edited the contents. I tried a couple of the charsets listed on this page: Character Sets It looks like UNICODE or UTF-8 is working for my purposes. Then saved the cpg file with my shapefile's name. It looks like it's working now. If there's a more automated way to make this change, I'd be interested to hear it.

I am creating a new attribute for an existing shapefile in ArcMap 10.3.1, which will contain a Russian place name (in Cyrillic alphabet). While editing, I can enter information in Cyrillic, but as soon as I save the edits, the text both in the Attribute Table and Map converts to "??????????" None of the fixes I have found online have worked. These have included: - Checking that I have Cyrillic fonts enabled on my computer (Windows 7). I regularly type and read in Cyrillic in multiple applications. In ArcMap, Cyrillic is not recognized whether I copy and paste Cyrillic text, or enter it using a Cyrillic keyboard. - I have tried changing the font used in tables in ArcMap (per this old discussion - Cyrillic Language Problem ). This did not help - I tried using markup in the Attribute table, per this discussion - http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/map/publish-map-services/drawing-behaviors-of-the-map-service.htm I appreciate any tips you can give me.
