Does anybody has experience with the import and export of  Unicode data into a QAD Database.

We want to create a Progress program which reads  in datarecords in Unicode format out of a file and store these records in the usrw_wkfl table. These records must be vissible with their original characters within QAD. It should also be possible to export those records in Unicode format out of QAD to a file.

Hi Harrie, you need to make sure your database is setup for unicode, or deal with the "conversion" to your native database. You may also need to make sure your client program supports Unicode, at this point Progress CHUI won't display Unicode. Our .NetUI client does. On some unix/linux systems you may also need to deal with filesystem and shell support for unicode if you need to be able to validate your results.
