Accent characters processed as plain characters!

Hi Everyone,

I am running in to an issue where my ASA database is processing accent chars (like ù, ú, û, ü,) as plain chars (like u).

I have a row in a table that looks like:

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

     Col1       Col2

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

     Test_ù    TestInfo

The table has Col1 as Primary Key.

The database does not honor a request to insert the following row:

     Test_û   TestInfo

It generates a primary key not unique error!!! even though this second row is unique on Col1.

Is there something I am missing that should be considered?

(FYI, these characters are from the default Windows 1252 Code Page.)

Thanks in advance for any input.

Tejo
