I'm chasing a problem where our database suddenly doesn't want to deal with unicode characters anymore ...

Had to reconfigure, convert and restart the database.

You need to do the following:

- Go to your "Control Panel" and select "Fonts"
- On the left, click on "Font settings"
- Uncheck (!) "Hide fonts based on language settings"
- Click OK

This will enable full unicode support on your computer ...

Actually, that is your local computer switching left/right on those characters since they are in a language that is written right to left.

On mine, they look exactly like the picture posted.

So, i guess that laugh is on you ...

It's refreshing to see that most people have no clue what unicode means ...

I'm pretty sure it's similar to a unibrow but lower down on your body.

It's Greek to me.

Unicode is the ancient language of the unicorn. Long thought to be permanently forgotten but Andy found it. Has the Smithsonian called you yet?
JoeSharp
Thanks for the work Andy. I only took in about one third of the link on Unicode. Wow, very foward thinking. It leaves a lot of space for growth.

I totally understand. There are several characters that I don't want to deal with anymore, either. dry.gif

In researching this, did you also run across the history regarding an ancient language from the extinct dinosaur called the Thesaurus?

Apparently, they had a very large and intellectual vocabulary ...

Interesting Andy. The team I've been working on at work deals with databases/GIS data, a great majority of which contains a variety of languages. Previously if something contained Arabic or an Asiatic language, they were simply deleting that individual feature.

It took me two weeks of asking them "Why don't we just look at supporting Unicode?" before they finally listened. I guess that's what I'm destined to have to deal with as a young(er) guy. confused24.gif
