Adam, 

I don't know if this is what you want, but...

On my Solaris build I have problems because I don't have gcc and gnu's
libiconv.
The solaris equivalent of iconv is not up to the job, so I can't use
that either.

james instrumented the configure flag

--disable-libiconv

just for me...

Bill

Subject: [freetds] charset issues



I'm having difficulty (still/again) with characters getting converted to
?'s when they aren't a part of the client charset.  (i've been using
cp1252, which is supposed to be the same as windows-1252 afaik)

Is there anyway to turn off the charset conversion completely?  I'm
having issues with things like em-dashes, angled double quotes, elipses
(...) and other things that get pasted out of word documents.

any other idea's about how i can stop these characters from getting
messed up on me would be very much appreciated.  If there is any other
information i can provide to be of assistance let me know.

Adam
