If I understand correctly, you want to save arabic text into a SQL Server Database field. Am I right? Then write the below code into SQLPreview Event of that particular datawindow
n_dwr_string lnv_string
Choose case sqltype
Case PreviewInsert!
sqlsyntax = lnv_string.of_globalreplace(sqlsyntax,"( '", "( N'")
sqlsyntax = lnv_string.of_globalreplace(sqlsyntax ,", '", ",N'")
this.setsqlpreview(sqlsyntax)
Case PreviewUpdate!, PreviewDelete!
sqlsyntax = lnv_string.of_globalreplace(sqlsyntax ,"= '","= N'")
this.setsqlpreview(sqlsyntax)
End Choose
It will prefix the character 'N' before inserting the data into the column.

Long ll_Start, ll_OldLen, ll_NewLen
String ls_Source
//Check parameters
If IsNull ( as_source ) or IsNull ( as_old ) or IsNull ( as_new ) or IsNull ( ab_ignorecase ) Then
string ls_null
SetNull ( ls_null )
Return ls_null
End If
//Get the string lenghts
ll_OldLen = Len ( as_Old )
ll_NewLen = Len ( as_New )
//Should function respect case.
If ab_ignorecase Then
as_old = Lower ( as_old )
ls_source = Lower ( as_source )
Else
ls_source = as_source
End If
//Search for the first occurrence of as_Old
ll_Start = Pos ( ls_Source, as_Old )
Do While ll_Start > 0
// replace as_Old with as_New
as_Source = Replace ( as_Source, ll_Start, ll_OldLen, as_New )
//Should function respect case.
If ab_ignorecase Then
ls_source = Lower ( as_source )
Else
ls_source = as_source
End If
// find the next occurrence of as_Old
ll_Start = Pos ( ls_Source, as_Old, ( ll_Start + ll_NewLen ) )
Loop
Return as_Source
You can use the above function to replace values.
