You could use a tool like flamerobin and look at the meta data to see which charset was used for the firebird database in question. You also want to look there: http://kinterbasdb.sourceforge.net/dist_docs/usage.html#adv_prog_maint_database_info Kinterbasdb will not be further developed and you might want to use the fdb driver for further python development. http://pypi.python.org/pypi/fdb/0.7.2 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
