Handling Multi Byte Character Dataset

Post by pavankvk »

Hi

What is the best way to handle multi byte character datasets in datastage. We have NLS mapped to UTF-8. Will this handle all the cases. we are facing issues in oracle enterprise stage because of this.

UTF-8 is a good basis but it does not handle "all" characters. No mapping does. It will most likely cover any characters you are going to use. If you could explain
...facing issues in oracle enterprise stage because of this...
