The application is an embedded sql c++ program (precompiled with proc) and it connects using
exec sql connect :username identified by :password
at :Database_Name using :database_string;
to the db on the windows server.
After the connect, I use two alter session command:
alter session set NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = '.,' alter session set current_schema='XXX'
Are there any translation DLL's in this case? How can I disable or control this translation?
Thanks
