Hi all,

Iam trying to insert the below text in a Nvarchar column, and Varchar column and see no difference in both columns while displaying

('bachelor’s degree from Babson College and a master’s degree')

i've an xml file which am trying to save in a varchar column/Nvarchar column but i see text inserted as "?" for ’ these kind of characters and unable to display data properly.. any idea.. what to do with the columns. or do i need to do any special settings to table in order to accept these unicode characters.

Where are you viewing the data? I don't believe Management Studio will display these characters correctly, but an application that can support this will.
