AW: Any German here ? Character set

Hi  

That's exactly what we use. But it depends on what you have to support: If you have Oracle running on a Mainframe and your customer is Austrian, there is D8EBCDIC1141, which supports special local characters.  

Hope that helps,
Stefan

I'd recommend WE8ISO8859P15 (I think that's it) ... the difference is Euro support!
