Hello,
I have some problems which I think have to do with Unicode strings in
Windows.
Currently, my database is set to Unicode encoding (which I understand means
UTF-8). I use Windows-based programs (running on .NET) through ODBC to
insert some text in UCS-2 encoding.
Now when I try to read that data using the same client program, it
sometimes truncates long strings (after a few hundred characters or so).
Moreover, if I access the same tables using Access XP, in most cases the
text is garbled. I see only fragments of the text, with garbage characters
in it, or in some cases no text at all.
What is the correct way to set up a database (with appropriate encoding)
and ODBC drivers so that Windows programs can read and write Unicode text
(UCS-2)?
Thanks,
Marcus B.
