Hi everybody:
I am developing an application that uses SQLServer 2000 as its data
repository.
I have a varchar field in one of my tables, and when I do:
update PolicyInfo
set policyInfoName = N'ñ,á,é,æ,ä,å,û,ý,ß,?,?,?,?,?'
where id = 1
I got a policyInfoName = ñ,á,é,æ,ä,å,û,ý,ß,ß,e,?,?,?
[notice the three last unmanaged Unicode characters)
Do I have to define something in my implementation, modify my connection
string or something like that [my connection language is English]?
Best regards,
Ernesto

Varchar does not store unicode data. You need to move to unicode data
types: nchar, nvarchar, and ntext.
