For 30 days, I avoided opening as a bug, because I researched a lot, I asked in some forums with more than 50 thousand users and I did not find anyone else with this problem, so much so that in the initial post, I asked if it could be a configuration problem, or bug or lack of full UFT8 support with Firebir CHAR fields. Since there was no answer here on the list, I was feeling alone and afraid and wondering why no one else has this problem.
