I own to this list a BIG excuse........

I was wrong about the correct unicode interpretation... the current jdbc 
driver does
NOT retrieve correctly unicode strings, because sql server sends only 8 bit 
per
character and so information is lost.

As I understand SQL server would send all of the 16 bits per character if the 
driver
would use a "TDS 7 login". In this case the driver would have to call a simple
new String(theBytes,"x-utf-16le")
to get the correct String



Sorry again...
