Those who would like to know how did I do it, I had to install the hindi scripts first, and then configure it as input language in Unicode mode. After ime configuration, I’ve configured the database successfully. One major change that I had to do was in dataType, where I used nchar and nvarchar in place of char and varchar. There were a bit of other play-arounds, but finally I got it done. I also found out that access 2007 supports the Unicode as well, so if you ever need to store the local language values of your nation I.E. urdu, Korean, Japanese, Chinese etc, you should be able to do it without any huge problem. Thanks all for your good wishes. Cheers! Prateek agarwal. On 10/22/10, prateek aggarwal <prateekagarwal99@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hi mates, A project that I’ve got today requires me to store and retrieve hindi characters into the database. It’s a windows based software, hence I’m going to use c# as front end and sql server as database. Since I haven’t worked on this kind of application previously, I’ve been trying to figure out how can it be done. Those who don’t know, hindi is the national language of India which is widely spoken across the nation. Basically, I think I need to store and retrieve Unicode based values, so does someone have any idea about how can I do it? I know that defaultly it stores the values in ansi format, hence something need to be done for storing and retrieving values in Unicode. Just now, I was told that the controls available with "Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library" are capable of showing the unicode texts. It’s a bit confusing to me, since I have had no experience of this kind of something in past. If any of you have some idea about how is it done, please share with me asap, will be of real help. I will look forward for your early responses. Cheers! Prateek agarwal.
