9.2 convert ASCII to UTF8 welsh language

536438Dec 15 2006 — edited Dec 21 2006
hello

I have a 9.2 ascii database that i cant convert to UTF8 yet

1 for an output (util file) i need to convert an ascii text string to utf-8 on export

2 i have two characters that are not supported by ascii, ŵŷ the users will represent these by typing w^y^

I tryed using UNISTR but non of the characters below are corectly converted

SELECT UNISTR(ASCIISTR( '剔搙)) FROM DUAL ;

how would you recomend converting a ascii latin 1 extended string to UTF-8 for export?

is it sencible to use the character replacement plan above for ŵŷ?

thanks

james
