Thai NLS language for database and client

27112Oct 18 2001

All,

I'l trying to set my DB for Thai users.
For the database character set, I'm planning to use
AMERICAN_AMERICA.TH8TISASCII.
If I got it right, this will allow to store Thai characters using
fixed width coding scheme (which I need because I have CLOB
columns in some of the tables).

For the clients, I'm planning to set them up with
NLS_LANG=THAI_THAILAND.TH8TISASCII. It will allow them to type in
Thai characters, visualize everything (like calendar, decimal
format, ect.) in Thai formats.

Just one thing puzzles me : it is said in the NLS manual that
Oracle messages are NOT translated in Thai. So, how will they
show on the client side? In English by default?

Thanks

Regards
