I have a column that is NText that may contain Kanji and English text.
When I view through the GUI, it shows both.
When I view in SQL it shows Kanji characters as ?
If I copy and paste from gui to update sql, same.
I did some research an it appears that notepad and sql have the same quirk which makes me think they adhere to an ansi text standard which negates non standard characters.
If I paste into word, outlook or UI via Internet Explorer all is good, Kanji and English are zen.
The question I have:
Is there a way to make below show using TSQL?
This is a test ticket for Japanese characer.
これはテストです。
これは ﾃｽﾄ です。
これは☆ です。
これは星です。
これは１２３４５６７８です。
これは12345678abcdefghです。
Currently the db shows this as:

??? ??? ???
???? ???
???????
???12345678???
???12345678abcdefgh???

The ????'s are actually squares in the db, but I had to save txt file so that when I copied into this, it would not show Kanji.
Has anyone run into this or have any ideas?
Thanks

Hi use NVARCHAR instead of VARCHAR because it has unicode
Like this
SELECT CAST('???? ???' AS NVARCHAR(MAX))
-- ???? ???
SELECT CAST(N'???? ???' AS NVARCHAR(MAX))
-- '???? ???'
SELECT N'???? ???'
-- '???? ???'
