Delphi5 BDE and character sets

Hi friends,

It seems to me that BDE always converts my input strings into an other
character set when posting to the database, but it shouldn't, because the
database is in win1250 character set in which my windows workstation and
database server is as well.

Delphi 3 was correct. What can be the problem?

What database are you using?

In any case, check the language driver settings in the BDE
Administrator program and see if its any different from your earlier
settings.

That is not a BDE character set I have ever heard of before. If you characters
are being translated it is due to the BDE driver that your table is using.
