That's all I know. :( I thought Win1252 was supposed to be almost the same as Latin1. While I'd expect certain differences, I wouldn't expect it to use 0x00 as data! Maybe you could have DTS export Unicode, which would presumably be UTF-16, then recode that to something else (possibly UTF-8) with GNU iconv. FWIW, I think the preferred way to set the client encoding on psql is \encoding. I'm not sure if it does anything different from the SET command though. -- Alvaro Herrera Valdivia, Chile ICBM: S 39º 49' 18.1", W 73º 13' 56.4" "In Europe they call me Niklaus Wirth; in the US they call me Nickel's worth.
