I created a database with a WE8ISO8859P1 character set, but seem to be
unable to actually enter
a-umlaut, e's with accents etc. into tables. For example, instead of an
'a-umlaut' in the insert
statement, I get a 'd', and a 'v' instead of a 'o-umlaut' out of a
select * statement.
It seems that the hexadecimal numbers A, B, .., F are not supported
here, because 'd' is encoded
by '0x64' and 'a-umlaut' by '0xE4', and '0x76' and '0xF6' for 'v' and
'o-umlaut', respectively.
The last number's always right.
What's the problem? Not a keyboard setting one, is it?
