Ooh...that's much better than my current example. I've
been using a name from our database - "Mu=F1oz" (the '=F1'
character here is an 'n' with a tilde '~'). This name
becomes "Muqoz" after a character set conversion from
US7ASCII to WE8ISO8859P1.
Cheers,
Mike

Hi,
Its very interesting with some data. For example,=20
the micro (u looking character), if stored in
USASCII7, gets converted to a number 6 in UTF-8
(without conversion and across db_links). Therefore,=20
1 micro gram (USASCII7) becomes 16 grams (UTF-8).=20
Much more fun than ?nre?d?ble st?ff.
Oracle's character set conversion utilities are a=20
must.
Regards,
Mike Thomas
