How insert Arabic/urdu characters in SQL server

Hi

I am developing an application where i want to store the different language (i.e. chines,Arabic,urdu etc) character in database (SQL Server). so when i store arabic characters in SQL server , it stores the (???).

datatype of field is nvarchar.

is anybody know about the problem and solution.

The problem is called character conversion and you are getting it because you are using only NVarchar without doing column level collation for Arabic in your database. There are three collations for Arabic in SQL Server 2005. If you are using SQL Server 2000 you can still do column level collation, the links below deals with SQL Server 2005. Hope this helps.

I want to query the database using SQL statements that contain Arabic letters... for example, this query won't return any results that start with the letter '?' even though if I try any english letters it works perfectly:

SELECT ArtistID, Name
FROM dbo.Artist
WHERE (Name LIKE '?' + '%')

I also tried switching:

SELECT ArtistID, Name
FROM dbo.Artist
WHERE (Name LIKE '%' + '?')

but it won't work.. any ideas ?

Thanks :)
