Hi Plamen,
Thanks for your answer.
See the following artciles:
Description of storing UTF-8 data in SQL Server (the article points to SQL 7/2000, but 2005 still uses UCS-2)
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/232580
I found this one, but could not really understand the meat of the mater.
UTF8 String User-Defined Data Type
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms160893.aspx
International Features in Microsoft SQL Server 2005
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb330962.aspxB
Basically, there is no native UTF-8 storage then in MSSQL, am I right? I mean, the scripts that we are using in perl are writing to the DB in UTF8, and the displayed information in the webapp is returning properly, but when you look at the data in the table, it is displayed incorrectly. Does that seem right?
I am speaking of storing German charachters like "äöüß"
--shawn
.
