This does it via Java.Nio.Charset. You feed it into the function and it returns it as Unicode. Then you can store it.

May be one of you (specially PaulH) would have a better solution. We have an application which is programmed by using CF5. We have also lots of data in Turkish and German. (ßÞ ñð à Ÿà ž öÃâ çÃ⡠ß äÃâ) But all these data has been entered via CF5 and not Unicode in database. What I do generally is reading from database and exporting into XML via CF5 and reading this exported XML file with CFMX and writing into an Unicode database. This is not a complicated process specially when you have a code which reads table field names etc. But still if table amount is more than expected, I would like to see an easy way to do this process. I am using SQL Server / MySQL and I think there must be a way of converting this data into Unicode direct in SQL level. Or another better solution? If you can share your experiences with me, that would be really great! TIA!
