Re: ? (question mark) characters

Ricardo,

Is your database compiled for multibyte support?  And what character set
is the database you are connecting to created with?  (to get the
database character set do a 'psql -l').  If the answer to the first
question is no or the answer to the second question is 'SQL_ASCII', then
only 7bit characters are supported.

thanks,
--Barry
