GOAL:

Does Progress Support NVARCHAR datatype in SQL92?

FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
All Supported Operating Systems

FIX:

No.
NVARCHAR datatype does not have a defined standard.
It is a term applied to a varchar datatype with possibilities for deviation or customization within the vendor's release of their product.

The Progress database is Unicode capable and supports the UTF-8 standard but does not use the syntax nvarchar, but rather uses the terminology varchar for this datatype.
