NLS Support for Data Visualizer Desktop

Content

Hello all,

can anyone tell me if Oracle DVD has NLS support? I've been looking for documentation all day, without any success.

I'm trying to access a European Oracle database in DVD and am having all sorts of NLS (date, currency, language and decimal point/comma) issues.

I've got as far as "SELECT * FROM NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS" in the Data Source "Enter SQL / Statement" window, so I can see that I have a problem with the NLS parameters.

I've managed to work out how to start DVD in English and German, but that makes no difference to the settings. Are there perhaps other start parameters (like -lang=en)?

Where can I set the NLS parameters for a session or project or data source?

Please forgive me if I'm missing something really obvious. I'd be most grateful for any help you could offer.

Thanks,

DJ.
