We are installing an engineering design application which has its own database and, in addition, needs to access the database of another application. Both are commercial applications where we do not have access to source code.

Application A runs on NT and uses a character set of American.America.UTF8. Application B runs on AIX and uses a character set of American.America.US7ASCII.

What character set should I specify in the registries of the client systems (NT) which run Application A?

thanks,
