We're having some problems with Oracle and accented characters. When trying to insert certain characters into a field (VARCHAR2). If certain accented characters are entered at the end of the string they get dropped from the string. If we append another character to the end of the string then everything works correctly. Characters with which it occurs are Ï (capital I with an umlaut), ß (german B with a tail - 's' sound), Ò (capital O with an grave accent). We only recently noticed it as it only occurs if the character is at the end of the string.
We're using Oracle v8.1.7 thru Apache/Perl 5.6.1/DBI 1.20/DBD::Oracle 1.12 Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks in advance! Also is there a more appropriate mailing list for this message? Maybe a DBI-Oracle-users mailing list? thanks, Alexis [EMAIL PROTECTED] This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
