Hi all,

We are using DB2 UDB 6.1 on AIX.  The code page for the database is UTF-8.  When we 
insert a record into DB2, the document says we can just do it without converting from 
native to UTF-8, which will be taken care by the database manager.

My question is does this hold good for any select statement with a search string or do 
we need to convert from native to UTF-8 before we add it in the like clause. 

For example

select * from employee where lastname like 'xyz%'

Instead of 'xyz' if we have some Japanese characters there, do we need to convert that 
to UTF-8 or we add just add the Japanese character in the parameter and DB2 will take 
care of converting them.

Any help would be appretiated.

Regards,
Ragu
