I'm trying to access DB2 on AS400 from oracle database using oracle gateway for ODBC.

I'm using the IBM i Access for windows as ODBC driver.

my initdg4odbc.ini gateway configuration is:

HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = DSN_name
HS_LANGUAGE=ARABIC_AMERICA.AR8MSWIN1256

Database character set is : ARABIC_AMERICA.AR8MSWIN1256

when I query column with Arabic characters it returns in reversed order:

any suggestions please?

thanks

  • Did you try other clients? It could be a limitation of IBM i Access. Did you set `NLS_LANG` at your client machine? – Wernfried Domscheit Dec 01 '21 at 09:50
  • im using the same IBM i Access with Excel and its retrieves Arabic characters correctly .i aslo checked the NLS_LAN on my Linux machine and its correct ARABIC_AMERICA.AR8MSWIN1256. – Mhd Nour Dec 01 '21 at 12:15
