Hi to all, I have the problem that:
select lower('MöBÜEL') or select upper('MöBÜEL') are not working well.
I read on some forums that there is some locale setting that needs to be done here, but could not fix this.
I am using the ASCII encoding.
Please advice.
Thakx.
Andy.

By definition, ASCII does not contain any umlauts.
So I would advise that, first, you switch to an umlaut capable encoding
(e. G. Latin1, Latin9 or UTF-8).

Hi Markus,
I tried different types of encoding, LATIN1 to LATIN 9, still the same
behavior. I read a few forums, but there I couldn't find a concrete answer
for this.
So... still searching.
Best regards,
Andy.
