Dear Firebird gurus, I need your help! I'm a C# developer and I'm experencing some troubles when retrieving data from a Firebird 2.0 server.
When I get data (text) from VarChar fields or Blob type 0 fields, I always receive the char '?' instead of 'à', 'é', 'ì', 'ò' or 'ù' and I really cannot understand why. The data are correctly stored in the DB because when I use FlameRobin 0.8.6 to read data, those strings are read correctly. I use the Firebird .NET Data Provider Version 2.1.0 for .NET 2.0 inside Visual Studio 2008 good installed and working. Maybe it is a problem of character encoding... I tried to understand this aspect but made no step ahead. What I know is that the original DB has ASCII charset (FlameRobin rules!), and in the connection string inside VB2008 the charset called is ASCII too. Could you please give me a tip to solve my problem? Or redirect me to someone knowing how... Thx in advance.
