I notice the forum comes as UTF-8 as default, which is a good sign. The use of stored procedures is also reassuring, the last thing I am looking for is the use of nchar, nvar and ntext in the database to support multi-byte characters.

Is this the case? Are the table setup scripts, which you use in the install, set to nchar, nvarChar and nText?

    the software does not store unicode characters, but if you want to use it on for example a Japanese site, you can use the instruction here:

    I was hoping that the ASP would be:
    session.codepage = 65001
    and have date/time display done independently of LCID.
    Thus the data between ASP and Database remains the same.
    It also makes working with the data in the database directly more user friendly.

    Shame.

      Beginning version 2.4.3, we store data in ntext and nvarchar column and thus the software is fully Unicode compatible.
