Have you received a letter from me? And tried to conduct test in Delphi 5 in Russian regional language settings? Thank you.

Helo,

I received your mail, and I have reproduced the problem.
I will notify you as soon as I have any results.

Ok, Thanks!

Hello,

I think that this problem is connected with the TntUnicodeControls components for Delphi 5. If I add a path to the TntUnicodeControls component files for Delphi 7 to the Search path in Delphi 5, everything works correctly.

AlexP, do I understand you correctly? You adapted "TNT Unicode Controls components for Delphi 7" under Delphi 5 and successfully compile test project?
Because I try doing that, but I see a lot of inconsistencies in the types and compiler directives.

Do I understand you correctly?

AlexP, something's wrong here ... Because if the problem was in TntUnicodeControls components for Delphi 5, then the problem would be anyway, when working through the direct mode and without it. Do you agree?

I think, variant that OraNet.dcu in Delphi 7 works correctly in direct mode, but in Delphi 5 - is not correct, more like the truth.

Today we have the following situation.

I tried to run the tests for next configurations:
- Delphi 5, TNTUnicodeControls for Delphi 5 and ODAC 7.00.0.1 for Delphi 5 under Windows XP and then under Windows 2008 Server.
- Delphi 7, TNTUnicodeControls for Delphi 7 and ODAC 7.00.0.1 for Delphi 7 under Windows XP and then under Windows 2008 Server.

We have next results:

In Delphi 7 all work correctly in the direct mode and without it in both versions Windows and at all regional language settings.

In Delphi 5 all work correctly in both versions Windows and at all regional language settings only through the Oracle client (without direct mode).

In direct mode in Delphi 5 all work correctly only under Windows 2008 Server, and only if we have Romanian regional language settings.

In all other cases we have the problem with saving Unicode characters in the database.

Adapt TNTUnicodeControls for Delphi 7 to work with Delphi 5, I could not. Too many types and compiler directives mismatches. I do not understand how you did it. But, on the basis of test results, it is clear that the problem is not in the TNTUnicodeControls for Delphi 5.

AlexP, how can you comment on this situation?

Shock!
I just did the opposite. I installed "TntUnicodeControls for Delphi 5" under Delphi 7 (in this packet was support for Delphi 6 and Delphi 7 through compiler directives) and compiled test project.
And everything is working correctly in the direct mode under Windows XP and in the Russian regional language settings!!!

This only confirms that the problem is not related to the TntUnicodeControls for Delphi 5.
