Does it matter? I thought it was the client encoding that mattered: I would
guess that it should be set to EUC_JP.

I tried EUC_JP, it does work. This is a Japanese encoding for Unixes. We need
its Windows equivalent, if exists. It could be added to PostgreSQL using
recode.

ISO-8859-8 should work for Hebrew on the client side. I sent a mail on ODBC
to ask for testing.

Cheers,

Yes, it matters. EUC_JP is a unix encoding. It will never display under
Windows.

Sorry, I meant it does NOT work.
