The 'DoubleByte' structure is essentialy a character set that uses two bytes to represent a character. This is because if you use kanji characters the reference number is higher than the normal ascii range.<br><br>This may not seem too problematic, but some software won't display double-byte data and hence won't handle Japanese data.<br><br>I can't remember the specifics for the different dbms's, but I know that we have used Oracle and SQL Server 7.0. <p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= home</a><br>
