Hi Tim,

Thanks for the response. But as per the Oracle NLS documentation, The
database should be in UTF8 format to support multiple langauages. In
that case, how the tables will contain data of difference langauges
like French, German etc.. and how about the procedures and functions?

Thanks,
Praveen
