Unicode in DB2 7.2

hello,
i am facing a problem with a db2 database created with utf-8
character set. My db2 server is running on windows 2000 server, client
is on another machine that is also running windows 2000 server.
installation of db2 is default on both client and server. after
creating database i cant insert any japanese/bangla character in the
database. then i test the font settngs of both db2 server and client
from Control centre and found that Arila Unicode MS font cant be set
as font. Then i tried with a Java gui that support unicode data to
insert japanese/bangla character. same gui works for oracle, sql
server, postgres..... in this case i dont find any error message while
saving but after saving if i refresh table data than i found all the
data are lost. i am using COM.ibm.db2.jdb c.net.DB2Driver driver.

i have tested the gui with DB2 8 with the com.ibm.db2.jcc .DB2Driver
driver and it works fine. then i tried to use
com.ibm.db2.jcc .DB2Driver with DB2 7.2 but this driver dosent work
with 7.2

so what i have to do to use my java gui with unicode database in DB2
7.2?

plz help me.

Perhaps setting the environment variable db2codepage helps?

db2set -g db2codepage=120 8

i did it, but no change. note that i didn't install any fixpak.
another thing is the fonts that can be set for Control Center do not
support japanese, thai or bangla. Arial Unicode MS does support all
these languages. So if i use Bangla then how can i seee them useing
Control Centre?

Hi, For the first time in my programmer life, I have to take care of character encoding. I have a question about the BOM marks. If I understand well, into the UTF-8 unicode binary representation, some systems add at the beginning of the file a BOM mark (Windows?), some don't. (Linux?). Therefore, the exact same text encoded in the same UTF-8 will result in two different binary files, and of a slightly different length. Right ?
