Hi,

We are currently using NVARCHAR2 datatype to store our unicode data. We were told that if we use database character set as UTF8 then we can unicode data in varchar2 columns and can avoid NVARCHAR2 datatype as we have some application issues with using NVARCHAR. Is this true that we can store unicode in varchar2 if database character set is UTF8?

Thanks
