But I don't think it's a Postgres problem; maybe your shell is playing some games on you. I don't know a lot about Hasefroch command line utilities to help you more here. > About the ODBC problem, I don't think it's an encoding problem. > My database encoding is sql_ascii, which I'm being using since > postgresql 7.3.2, and worked perfectly.

With SQL_ASCII you should limit yourself to (7 bit) ASCII characters, or be bitten by Postgres' recoding capabilities. If you want to use non-ascii characters, you should declare your database as LATIN1 or LATIN9, or if it's a Hasefroch server maybe win125x, cp850, whatever. And your client_encoding should be set to the correct value, so that if there is gonna be character conversion, the results are what you expect. -- Alvaro Herrera (<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) "La primera ley de las demostraciones en vivo es: no trate de usar el sistema.
