There seem to be a lot of people getting unicode when they want str.
I want unicode, I've tried to force it with the connection
parameters. I get it for the column heading but not the value.
Can anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks
Neil

Thanks, I'm still getting a unicode decode error though.
C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy-0.5.2-py2.6.egg\sqlalchemy

Yes,
No I'm using oracle.
I don't see anything applicable on the wikipage.
I tried convert_unicode=True assert_unicode=True
but I now believe that both are more about conversion than giving
hints on the native db coding.
The column in question is varchar2 and the db version is 10.2.0.4.0
