ASA Database Administration Guide
International Languages and Character Sets
Windows CE is a Unicode-based operating system. The Adaptive Server Anywhere ODBC driver supports either ASCII (8-bit) or Unicode strings, and carries out character set translation as needed. If you are developing embedded SQL applications, you can use Windows API functions to get the Unicode versions of strings from the database.
When creating databases for Windows CE, you should use a collation based on the same single- or multibyte character set that Windows would use for the language of interest. For example, if you are using English, French, or German, use the 1252Latin1 collation. If you are using Japanese, use the 932JPN collation, and if you are using Korean, use the 949KOR collation.
