Hello all,

Is there a simple way to display correctly foreign characters primarily found in name and address records? Currectly, NLS_LANGUAGE = AMERICAN in init.ora and NLS_LANG = AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1 in the registry on client side. Problem is is that name and address records may have characters like "a" with 2 dots on top, and many others, and when querying the db, obviously they're not displayed correctly.

Is there an easy way to do this reql quick?

Thanks much in advance!
