Re: Language Problem !!!

Hello Panos, similar problems (and more) have been solved when i used base64_encoding/base64_decoding for *every* insertion/retrieval from databases (oracle, mysql). I am sure that is has something to do with NLS_LANG settings but I haven't been able to find an acceptable solution. Kalh tyxh, -Stathis.
