I've seen that with other DBMS and ODBC drivers that I'm able to display double-byte characters on an English OS (with appropriate locales installed). Unfortunately, when I use the 8.0.1.2.00 Unicode PostgreSQL driver the data is returned as '?'. Has anyone had success using a utf-8 DB for storing and retrieving double-byte data? I've checked the CLIENT_ENCODING and it is "UTF8".
