Need help with arabic characterset in 11g

edited Mar 27, 2016 5:00AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

Hi all,

Recently i migrated oracle 10.2.0.4 on windows 2008 standard edition to Linux 11.2.0.4 Enterprise Edition. The problem i am facing is the arabic characters.

Earlier in 10g database, when we used to move cursor to arabic field in forms 6i, it would automatically change the language to arabic. But after migration to 11g, we need to change the language to arabic manually using Alt+Shift and enter data.

My Language settings on 11g database are as follows:

PARAMETER                 VALUE

------------------------------ ------------------------------

NLS_CALENDAR              GREGORIAN
NLS_CHARACTERSET          AR8MSWIN1256
NLS_COMP                  BINARY
NLS_CURRENCY              $
NLS_DATE_FORMAT           DD-MON-RR
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE         AMERICAN

Howdy, Stranger!
