Hmm, I'm guessing these probably shouldn't work: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ setlc "Japanese_Japan.28605" Japanese_Japan.28605 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ setlc "Japanese_Japan.28595" Japanese_Japan.28595 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ setlc "Russian_Russia.1252" Russian_Russia.1252 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ setlc "Russian_Russia.28591" Russian_Russia.28591 1252 == WIN1252 28591 == LATIN1 28605 == LATIN9 28595 == ISO8859-5 (Cyrillic) 28597 == ISO8859-7 (Greek) In fact, it looks like it'll allow me to use anything thats installed, regardless of whether they're liekly to be compatible. So much for trusting setlocale() :-( /D ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
