Hi Everyone,
We have recently added an office in Mexico and are having some issues with Spanish language characters not being displayed/saved correctly in our Remedy client/DB. Here is overview of system info: Remedy ARS 7.0.01 Oracle 10g Oracle NLS_CHARACTERSET is WE8MSWIN1252 Solaris OS I am able to manually insert Spanish characters into tables in the db and the data is correct. When a user types in data in a Remedy form the characters are shown correctly during entry but once the data is saved the characters become question marks and are not saved into the database as the correct value. I checked the ARS server settings and I don't think there is anything there to change for this. My experience with databases suggests changing the database client environment settings for the ARS server at startup but wanted to get confirmation that this would be the proper approach/best practice. Most likely the oracle NLS_LANG and etc environment settings would be the ones I would change! Thanks for your feedback.
