| We have a need on the database for it to be able to accept French language. Currently when I try and submit a record to the database in French it translates some of the characters to some other funky code. Do you know of anything in the SQL database that can be tweaked for it to allow French language? |

| Does French use uni-code characters? If so, are you using uni-code data types (nchar, nvarchar, ntext)?Tara Kizerhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |

| Unicode characters are accented characters such as é ó á etc.French clearly uses them so i would try using unicode data-types to fix the issue. |
