Insert problem

[bary40]

hi

when i tried to store Arabic chars (from a textbox) in a db table all i got is "?" chars instead of the actual letters.That happens on my database on the server (on the hosting) .

but in my machine everything works fine

I changed the responseEncoding/requestEncoding/fileEncoding to "windows-1256" but there is no benefit .

 

any idea ?

 

thanks in advance

What database are you using? What is the datatype for the field on the database

thanks for replying

 

the databse is SQL Server 2000

 

and the datatype nvarchar

 

it works at my computer , but at the hosting server it does not .
