Hi,

I was wondering if anyone would know how to insert the copyright character "©" into a field of an Oracle table?

Many thanks in advance...

Hi Everyone,

Lesson learned, I was trying to do this through the DOS SQLPLUS window, which doesn't support the characterset. If I use the SQL*Plus GUI then it will insert the copyright character set.

My humble apologies if I've wasted anyone's time.

Regards,
Sam
