International Language Support Experiences?we have been using utf8 char set for international support in the database .

-ak

  We have a new requirement to support multiple languages in at least one of our databases. I'm reading the Oracle 9iR2 Globalization Support Guide (450 pages), but wonder if any of you can share real-life experiences regarding:

  1. the conversion of existing DBs to broader character sets
  2. using Unicode
  3. implementing this with 9iAS

  Our databases currently use US7ASCII with the American character set, but we will likely need to support European, Southeast Asian, and South American languages.

  Thanks.

  Best regards,
