Hi, we have a problem while connecting to informix server via odbc The database-server has 8859-1 codeset The client application uses UTF8 In an older version, our client application made informix connections via isql... (native) we had: DB_LOCALE=en_us.8859-1 CLIENT_LOCALE=en_us.utf8this was working correct. Now, while using INFORMIX 3.30 ODBC Driver, this does not work. There are some settings for Translation at Driver setup. Specifying the DB_LOCALE and CLIENT_LOCALE there, does not help. There are two more fields: Translation Library Translation Option but we don't no, what to specify there. What can we do, to get the correct character mapping ? -- Karsten Knecht http://www.halstenbach.de Halstenbach ACT GmbH Telefon.: +49 30 600885-0 Gradestraße 36 Fax.....: +49 30 600885-50 D-12347 Berlin email...: karsten@halstenbach.de
