problem with japanese character 俱

Hi All,

Create a table , and put in some row 子ど and 俱

and fire a query something like SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE (myColumn = '子ど')

it gives me right result.

But if i fire

SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE (myColumn = '俱')

It does not return any result for the same even if myColumn has '俱'.

Surprisnly if i fire query like "SELECT * FROM mytable" it

correctly dispalys 俱.

What's the reason for the same ? Why does it is not able to search me on this japanese character(俱).Collation is Japanese_Unicode_CI_AS

Regards,

Sunil

Hi Sunil,

you wil have to indicate that the string is unicode in your query:

SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE (myColumn = N'俱')

|||Thanks Jens for your quick response.

I have one query why it was working without N in 子ど but not in 俱

Please don't multi-post. If you really need to post in multiple
newsgroups, you should cross-post (post only one time, but with both
newsgroups in the To: field).
I've responded to this question in the
microsoft.public.sqlserver.programming newsgroup.
