Re: [Firebird-net-provider] UTF8 issue and Firebird Dot Net Data Provider

[Scott P. <sco...@vi...>]

Hi Brad,


I've had that before where the Character Set specified in the Connection 
String is different to that the database was connected with, or some 
combination there of with differences in the connections.  Often with 
other symbol characters like:

£
`
'

You might want to just check the connection settings from the 
applications that do work currently, and then compare accordingly to 
ensure the connections are identically configured first.

If that is still an issue afterwards, then please do mention here again.


Kind regards,


Scott :)
