no, cf5 doesn't know anything about encoding, it simply passed whatever data you add through to the db. your data is for sure mangled. > Our problem is ... how to use this CF7 to get the query from those database > (which was written by CF5) > Because MX7 by default read the database using utf-8... while those database > is written by CF5 using different encoding. you can't. if you need to support both cf5 & cf7 then you'll need two different databases. you'll first need to export all the cf5 mangled data using cfhttp pages on the cf5 server & called from the cf7 server that would re-insert the data as *real* unicode or OÄuz's xml trick, both amount to the same thing, what went in via cf5 has to come out via cf5. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create Web Applications With ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2.
