hi, i had the same problem a while ago with japanese characters. are you using a turkish OS or turkish application to insert your data? for me, what happened was i was given a file from a colleague who was using japanese OS and japanese version of excel. when he passed me the data, i opened it in Win2000 english version and edited the data with Excel2000 english version. when i save the file in a .csv format, i think the japanese characters got corrupted cos when i uploaded the file to PHPMyAdmin, i get ?????? instead of my jap characters. but when my colleague tried on his machine with all the japanese settings, it worked well and good.. once the data is inside, any one can read it with the characters .. reading has never been a prob.. to what i experienced, the OS and the application may solve your prob. hth hwee ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gamze Başaran" <gbasaran@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <php-db@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, December 03, 2003 9:38 PM Subject: character problem with mssql > Hi; > > I use php and mssql.
