Hi, I just tried to create an external table with a filename that contains "ö". The database charset is UTF-8 and I did it from FlameRobin using UTF-8 as connection character set.
It failed because the filename obviously got encoded as UTF-8, and passed like that to the server's file system, resulting in a filename with "ö" instead of "ö". This can't be right... How is this supposed to work and how am I supposed to get it right? I would have thought that the Firebird server would be aware that the string literals it receives from the client are encoded in the connection charset, and transliterate to the file system's charset before trying to create/access the file. Am I missing something? Regards, Kjell -- -------------------------------------- Kjell Rilbe DataDIA AB E-post: [email protected] Telefon: 08-761 06 55 Mobil: 0733-44 24 64
