Hi all

I am running a server (windows 2000 Oracle 8.1.7) here in the UK where I have installed UTF8 as characterset (also as national charset). The registry settings are ENGLISH_UNITED KINGDOM.WE8MSWIN1252 which correspond to the servers locale. However the database itself using American America (but UTF8) as NLS parameters. I have had problems when I have connected from client computers with SQL Plus worksheet and also displaying html pages from the db that I can't properly display characters such as äåö (swedish char). I'm not sure if a failing factor could be that the territory and language setting of the database must run as UNITED KINGDOM and ENGLISH instead of american.

Any ideas

Thanks
Erik
