    American_america.utf8 Vs American_america.zhs16gbk

    We build procedure in AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHS16GBK and some comments are in Chinese language .

    Now we set the NLS_LANG to AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8 , But those
    Chinese characters are displayed as massive code ?

    I thought UTF8 should be able to display properly for any languages?

    Appreciate very much to have your expertised idea .

    you left out one important link in your signature..METALINK Try it! It does a DBA good.
    Oracle it's not just a database it's a lifestyle!

    As I know (I don't know why)
    Even Oracle say UTF8 support chinese character, but actually if I run in UTF8, I cannot input chinese into oracle db.
    So it is better keep use ZHS16GBK and also change your client side nls_lang=american.zhs16gbk
