Re: [RBASE-L] - Storing Greek characters in table

[A. Razzak Memon]

Bill and Bo,

The Greek and percent characters can be stored in 
the database with no problems.

With the extended ASCII characters, use the 
WIDETEXT data type for your table columns.

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak

Ämne: [RBASE-L] - Storing Greek characters in table

I need to store Greek characters in a table.  I 
created a text column and in my input form I set 
a property command on entry to the field as: 
PROPERTY APPLICATION INPUT_LANGUAGE 
00000408.  408 is for Greek then returned it to 
English 409 when I left the field.  Some of the 
Greek characters are properly stored, others are not.

Is there something I need to do to the column in 
order to properly store the Greek 
characters?  I've checked the forum but found no help.

Thanks, Bill
