To clarify, Unicode is the character set, and UTF8 and UTF16 are ways of representing that characters set in 8-bit and 16-bit segments, respectively. PostgreSQL only suports UTF8, and Win32 only supports UTF16 in the operating system. And 0x00 is not a valid value in any of those, that I know of, but perhaps it is in UTF16. -- Bruce Momjian bruce@xxxxxxxxxx EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +
