It does? Not by default. If you define your fields as varchar(x), it can be used to use UTF-8. nvarchar is utf-16 by default, off course. > lazarus uses UTF8 > FPC doesnt use unicode > > my first question is ..is it possible at all to present valid data in > program compiled with lazarus that connects to MSSQL server? Just set your connection to UTF-8 and you're done. It doesn't matter how the data is stored. (But if you can choose, use nvarchar, so no conversion is needed) Joost. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
