Hi Our product used to run on FB 2.0 with the character set configured to 'NONE'. We released a new version using FB 2.5 and character set to UTF8. One of our sites had been storing Chinese data in their database using the Chinese langauge pack and Windows XP. After converting the database to UTF8 our new system is running fine for new data but the old data has not converted across correctly.
My plan is to either a) Setup an old copy of data on FB 2.0 and export data to a unicode format file (update SQLs) and then use that file to update the data in the 'new' database running on FB 2.5 b) Use a data pump (an IBObjects component) to connect to the old database running on FB 2.0 and a new database running on FB 2.5 Does that sound like if should work? Should I leave the CharSet set to 'NONE' for the FB 2.0 DB or should I change it? Any other / better suggestions ?
