GOAL:
Is it possible to store German, French, Finnish, Norwegian, Swedish, or Danish characters in a Chinese database?
GOAL:
Can characters from incompatible code pages be stored in the same database?
FIX:
Although it is possible to store the basic English Ascii character set in a Chinese database, it is not possible to store extended characters such as umlaut or accented characters into a Chinese database.
Any extended characters that occupy positions above 127 in the code page cannot be stored in a database using an incompatible code page.
The way this can be done is with Progress versions 9.x and above, and to convert the Chinese or incompatible database to UTF-8. UTF-8 can store all characters from all code pages.
