Hi experts,

anytime I compact or verify+repair my repository all German umlaute like ä become like a". Exist there any setting to avoid this conversion, e.g. setting a specific encoding or something similar?

Thanks for your answers. Regards, bd

Hi,

here is the solution:

Set the NLS_CHARACTERSET to UTF8 or UTF16 and make sure that the following fonts are installed on the GUI

machine: Arial UnicodeMod (ARIALMOD.ttf) and Arial Unicode MS (ARIALUNI.ttf).
