In european languages "Ã..." is usually a sign you have utf8 characters in latin 8bit fields.
Massimo, I can see that for MySQL you do other=' ENGINE=InnoDB CHARACTER SET utf8;' but I fail to see a similar statement for MSSQL or other databases. How do you make sure they create tables in utf8 ? Also, what is perhaps missing is the collation. Character sets are cool, but if you want to use the DAL with 'orderby' on a non-english (>128 ascii actually) language table, you're in trouble without collations.
