Hi, 
I am using a unicode character in my python string i.e. \u2013. When I try 
to insert this into mssql I see this character getting inserted as *â??*
I have a similar problem when I read back a stored unicode character i.e. '
*—*' which I inserted via SQL server management studio. 
I see the character being read as \x13. 

The hexadecimal representation of the character is \xe2\80\x93. 

SQL server - MS SQL 2014, version - 12.0

I tried with datatype of column as varchar and nvarchar both. I also tried 
passing encoding as 'utf8' while creating engine, and passing charset as 
'utf8' in engine url. 

Let me know if I am missing anything ?

Thanks
