BasilioObispo · May 5, 2020

I have an app developed for my church, but I need it in Greek, I use SQlite as DB but don't support Greek, when I try to put info in Greek show only ????????????, can you recommend me another DB (free) that support the language that I need. THANKS

SQLite supports all languages. You did a mistake somewhere. Probably when you read data from a file or website.

Erel, thanks for your answer, but, I have an .csv with all the info in greek and when I copy to de db only shows me ????? in the fields, I check the languages in SQlite and don't show greek. My app is ready but I need to present in greek to my superiors.

I'm afraid that your .csv file is encoded with Windows-1253 and not UTF-8.
Try to convert it with notepad++.

My excuses EREL, you are ok and I'm wrong. It's the csv that convert all characters from greek to ??????. So please tell me how can I pass directly from xls to the db

Thanks EREL, I found an Addin for Excel and solve the problem

Could you, just for the record, tell us which Excel add-in you refer to.

I wrote a .NET web application for use ,n my apps. DB and App is in my website. I'm sending data with url, it writes into table and also reading data with url parameters and data is written to page. But I don't know how to read page. You can use this way I think.

Read : http://localhost:5232/Page1.aspx?ID=001A

Write : http://localhost:5232/Page2.aspx?VALUE=20&ID=001A
