If you change locale definintion in systables you will not be able to open database again (and you can not drop it either). All tables in system catalog use nchar columns, and it seems that data that goes in indexes is tweaked in some way when indexing nchar columns. The same goes if you try to substitute anotehr locale table for cutrrently defined locale. ============================== Slobodan Zorko Alfatec Group 10000 Zagreb, Praska 5, CROATIA email: slobodan.zorko@zg.tel.hr begin 666 Slobodan Zorko.vcf M0D5'24XZ5D-!4D0-"E9%4E-)3TXZ,BXQ#0I..EIO<FMO.U-L;V)O9&%N#0I& M3CI3;&]B;V1A;B!:;W)K;PT*4D56.C$Y.3@P-S Q5#$P,C<P-%H-"D5.1#I6 &0T%21 T* ` end
