By Phoebe - usenet poster


hi i am using window xp 2004 and oracle 8i client (in my client machine)
.... i have designed an interface using vfp that connect to oracle 10g
database server in other machine......

now my problem is when i insert some character like ?? using designed
interface.. it insert some other character that is ?? intead of ??
this......... from my client side.

but when i use my server (install same window xp) there is no problem and
the records are retrived as it is......  at least i know that it is not the
oracle 10g problem.......

is this a problem of oracle client 8.1.6.0.0? can anybody tell me why is
that so....

Oracle 8i will not be supported for xp 2004.
You need to install XP sp2 for it.

Rhetorical question: Did Oracle 8i certify for XP?

So this is a YOYO.

Let me see if I've got this correctly.

You somehow have come to the conclusion that Oracle developers are
so good that when they coded the 8i client they knew all of the
specs and functionality for 10g ... put it into the source code
and tested it? Alison will be thrilled. I'll bet she didn't know
her team was that good.

Oh and Sybrand's comment too.

Check if there is a mismatch in charactersets between your client and
server. It seems like thats the problem. Try to use a characterset that
is supported in 8.1.6 on your 10g database also.
