Hi Ian,
Thanks for the response.
With cx_Oracle(version 5.0.3), the retrieval of that field value works fine
as in my original email.
It's only when i directly use the Django models way of accessing that it
fails.
Below two examples will make it more clear.
This is using Django models and it fails
==============================
>>> TerminologyMap.objects.filter(id=316)
Traceback (most recent call last):

django.utils.encoding.DjangoUnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode
bytes in position 22-24: invalid
data. You passed in 'Registro guardado con \xe9xito' (<type 'str'>)
This is using cx_Oracle and it works fine
===============================
>>> cx_Oracle.version
'5.0.3'
>>> cursor.execute("select to_term from terminology_map where id=316")
>>> cursor.fetchone()[0]
'Registro guardado con \xe9xito'
Regards,
Anurag
