Functions and operators that work on string fragments are generally not DBCS aware, eg. $. If you're application only used the MACHINE collate sequence you might need to modify code that expects characters and ANSI codes to be equivalent. In general, code needs to distinguish between strings that are binary data (like a GUID) and actual text.
