Re: nls problem ?

NLS is a complex internationalization data arquitecture. It's not obious to change a NLS database configuration. We have requested to Informix a utility to change the NLS capabilities of a D.B. but, until now, there are only a solution, dbexport the database a dbimport it with a diferent NLS sequence. P.E. DB_LOCALE=es_es.8859-1 export DBNLS CLIENT_LOCALE=en_us.8859-1 export CLIENT LOCALEdbexport mydabatase -o /export DB_LOCALE=en_us.8859-1 export DB_LOCALEdbimport mydatabase -i /export Hope this helps!
