This charset doesn't works with german umlauts.

Now I'm use ISO8859_1 as charset und for every VarChar-/Char-Field the
collate DE_DE.
Then the UPPER()-function works fine with german umlauts.

Thanks to all for your help. :-)

Best regards,
Carsten


BTW:
Sorry, that I open a third thread with the same topic, but if I try to
answer direct to the newsgroup my message dosen't appears in the newsgroup.
:-(
So I have to send my answer as an email to the newsgroup and every email
opens a new thread.

I don't no why I can't answer direct.
In other newsgroups I haven't such problems.
