Hi!

I am trying to print Hebrew characters:

Module Module1

   Sub Main()

       Console.WriteLine("איתי")

   End Sub

End Module

And the output is:

????

How can I print in Hebrew to the console window?

Question number 2:

I am trying to insert data in Hebrew into my database:

       Dim conn As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection()
       conn.ConnectionString = "DataSource=.
\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\Database2.mdf;Integrated
Security=True;User Instance=True"
       conn.Open()
       Dim cmd1 As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("INSERT
DomainTable (EmailID, Email, Domain) VALUES('2', 'איתי', 'לוז')",
conn)
       cmd1.ExecuteNonQuery()

I have configured the Email and Domain field as nvarchar(50) which is
supposed to take care of unicode. However, I am not certain that the
values are stored in the database as Hebrew. Any suggestions on how to
do this?

Thanks in advance,

Etay

As far as I understand it you should prefix the nvarchar string literals
with N e.g.
  VALUES('2', N'לוז', N'איתי')

Use SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express and look at the table data.

Yep, that did the trick - thanks there.
