To Whom It May Concern:
SQL server is in the Unicode Products WebSite described as Unicode enables.
What we would like to know is :
a - Does SQL Server allows to set as an index a field in Unicode standard?
b - Can you make SQL query on this particular field?
If you have any information, or

SQL Server supports the datatypes NTEXT, NCHAR, and NVARCHAR, all of which
are of type UCS-2. When such a column indexed, then the index is Unicode (I

Actually, the problem is the *same old thing*: no education about I18N
issues in general. There are all sorts of interesting "biases" about
Unicode related to the still lamentable level of I18N training that the
average developer receives.
It's simply shocking.

No.
U+2121 was given a compatibility decomposition involving super for
Unicode versions 1.1.5, 2.0.0, and 2.1.2. This was based primarily on the

Hi Tex,
There is a not-all-that-straightforward method that I've seen which

My personal feeling is that for most purposes, you can get away with a
single American Spanish (as opposed to European Spanish) that would cover
South and Latin America.
Microsoft (for Windows 2000) renamed LCID 3082's name from Modern Spanish to
International Spanish, which is the only language

Different verticals get influenced from different directions.

Iberian Spanish. If some Spanish speaking countries prefer Iberian
