Hi Marco,
thanks for the info we will give that a try. Can we cretae the new
database with the database parameter _UNICODE true and restore a backup
of the actual database into that ? Do we have to change something elese
beside the database parameter and the JDBC-driver eg. a datatype of a
table ?
greetings from Linz to Berlin.

Hi,
I guess you use JDBC to access the database, right?
First you need a database instance that supports unicode. The database
parameter _UNICODE must be true. Unfortunately you can set this parameter only
when you create the database. You cannot change this parameter afterwards.
If you use an old version of JDBC you need to set the connect property
unicode=yes within your connect URL when your sql statements contains unicode
characters. Otherwise unicode characters will be replaced by question marks.
You don't need to set this parameter if you use a newer version of MaxDB's JDBC
driver (at least 7.6.0 Build 020-000-005-036).
Regards,
Marco

Subject: save text in differnt languages eg Slaovac /
Cyrillic SAPDB/MAXDB
Hi we have an Java client server software that runs on SAPDB 7.3.
As we are now expanding into other countries (no German
speaking ones) we are in the need to save text to the DB that
is eg. in Slovak. The problem is that there are some special
characters that seem not to be saved into the DB correctly:
eg. ΕΎ (Unicode \u017E ). The User can type in the character
correctly, bute when the reopen the text from the DB instaed
of these special characters it just shows ??? How can that
characters be saved correctly ?
any ideas welcome.
