I'm probably stating the obvious, but some short phrases or words are going to be necessarily ambiguous -- that is, you can't really determine a language for such a small...

(Post-scriptum caveat: I'm far from an expert. I'm just reporting some simple things of which I myself was not aware some years ago, in case they are of any help...

If you write the raw data into a text file, you can use iconv to do a simple conversion.
Check that your iconv supports the proprietary Microsoft Arabic codepage, if you...

ANSI_NULLs can be set at the connection level -- perhaps it is not set as you expect in your connection?
For example, executing this in SQL Server 2000 Query Analyzer, returns...
