FirebirdSQL Win1250 question lazarus / 16-Databases ---------------------------------------------------------------------- k1attila1 · 2019-02-16 18:12 Hi I try to use in my application FB2.5 with win1250 cp. But in dbedit i have problem. When i type the text everything is OK, but when i leave the dbedit something go wrong. See attachments. Any idea ? What is wrong ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Zoran · 2019-02-16 19:10 In Object inspector set CharSet property of the IBConnection to UTF8. Yes, to UTF8, not to Win1250 - this will tell your db server what charset the client uses, and in Lazarus applications it is UTF8. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- k1attila1 · 2019-02-16 20:26 Sorry, i forgot to mention. i use Zeos. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Zoran · 2019-02-16 22:27 In Zeos 2.5 there are properties ClientCodepage and ControlsCodePage. First, make sure that ControlsCodePage is set to cCP_UTF8, and set ClientCodePage to UTF8. If you have older version update - please use 7.2-pathces branch: https://sourceforge.net/p/zeoslib/code-0/HEAD/tree/branches/7.2- patches/
