Hi all,

The problem:
I am trying to copy data from a MS Access 2000 database to a SQL 7.0 database with VB 6.0. The data in the MS Access database is multi lingual that is the text fields are unicode. When I create the recordset for the table in Access I looze the unicode characters. They turn into "?" and are displayed on SQL as "?".

The question:
Is there a way to copy unicode data with VB 6.0 without loosing the unicode characters?
Is VB the tool for this or should I switch over to VC?

The solution:
Please fill in if you have any idea....

did you check out the Data Transformation Services in SQL Server 7?
if you really only copy data from Access to SQLServer you shouldn't have to write a single line of code.
