Hi,
I am trying to insert some "higher" Unicode symbols in DB.

For instance the omega symbol becomes "O" in DB record.
As other thread advise I did set my SQL Server columns to varchar, nvarchar, char but to no avail.
I see that the "Save to DB" demo on your site is working correctly with the Omega symbol.

What could be the problem you think?

Regards,
Marc

Hi Marc,

Please, make sure that your globalization settings are set to UTF-8 as it is shown in this help article:
Appearance of odd characters after saving RadEditor's content in Database.

Hi Rumen,

All these were already set. The problem was that in the query I had

...tekst = 'tekst'...

And that must be

...tekst = N'tekst'...

following the guide on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239530

Maybe you should add this one on http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet/editor/appearanceofoddcharactersaftersavingradeditorscontentindatabase.html

Thanks for your time

Marc
