    Hi all,

    Using a table with a field=char(90) database collation=Latin1_General_Cl_AS , is there a way that we can insert an alfa symbol = 97 (decimal)?

    Doing copy paste from Word it turns to -> 

    Thanks.

    i believe the alpha symbol would require an NCHAR column, and nnot a char; the alpha is in the extended ascii character set.

    example:

    /*

    (No column name) (No column name) (No column name) (No column name)

    a 97 a a

    */

    DECLARE @nc NCHAR(1)

    SET @nc = N'a'

    select

    N'a',

    ASCII('a'),

    CONVERT(CHAR(1),(@nc)),

    CONVERT(NCHAR(1),(@nc))
