Ahmed HaroonDec 5 2016 — edited Dec 12 2016

hi all,

Database 11gR2, Forms 10g

Test App Server: OS = Windows 2003

Development:

OS = WinXP

created an entry in default.env file as  NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8 which cause problem so remark it.

AMC.@.testdb > SELECT *

  2  from NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS

  3  WHERE parameter IN ( 'NLS_LANGUAGE', 'NLS_TERRITORY', 'NLS_CHARACTERSET');

PARAMETER                      VALUE

------------------------------ ----------------------------------------

NLS_LANGUAGE                   AMERICAN

NLS_TERRITORY                  AMERICA

NLS_CHARACTERSET               WE8MSWIN1252

We temporary changed above character set to AMERICAN.AMERICA.AL32UTF8 but we have to use WE8MSWIN1252 because here are some application modules running on Very Old version of Forms and Reports which is 6i.

created a Function to get values in xmltype ( thanks to Billy Verreynne ) through an another Function which convert these values in normal format ( thanks to odie_63 ) but due to some data in Urdu Language it not showing those column data as it should be. the first function getting data through a Web Service and data is in utf-8 character set.
