Hello All,

I have a special requirement. Our customer use the informix with DB_LOCALE
and
SERVER_LOCALE set to en_US.8859-1, but store the chinese Big5 code data.
Because if they set the DB_LOCALE to zh_TW.Big5, some Big5 code cannot
save into the DB. The LOCALE en_US.8895-1 don't check any codeset, so the
extend
Big5 code can store into the DB.
But the user want to use the zh_TW.Big5 to connect to the DB Server and open
the
en_US.8859-1 LOCALE database. Does anybody know how to bypass the DB_LOCALE?
I want to use the different CLIENT_LOCALE to connect to the Informix DB
Server.

Best Regards.

Philip Yeh.
