2735669 - How to display text stored in Amharic language or data which contains "special characters" - SAP ASE

Symptom

  • After updating column CLAIM_TYPE univarchar(100), retrieving the data using ISQL in Linux returns the correct output:
    select CLAIM_TYPE FROM dbo.CLAIM_DETAILS WHERE CLAIM_DETAILS_ID = 'e812cd123512251320007312ab121a12'
    go
    CLAIM_TYPE                                                                                                                                                       
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    የውስጥ                                                                                                                                                    
    (1 row affected) 

  • However, the same select in DOS does not show the correct output:
    select CLAIM_TYPE FROM dbo.CLAIM_DETAILS WHERE CLAIM_DETAILS_ID = 'e812cd123512251320007312ab121a12'
    go
    CLAIM_TYPE
