0	Hi Thiru, You just need to ensure that your database is able to save Tamil font. To do that you need to define data type of the table field as nvarchar instead of varchar, ntext instead of text, nchar instead of char etc and you should be able to save any language data into those fields. Read little more about nvarchar data type at http://www.dotnetfunda.com/forums/show/16275/what-is-the-difference-between-char-varchar-nvarchar-in-sql and http://www.dotnetfunda.com/forums/show/12292/what-is-the-difference-between-varchar-and-nvarchar. Hope this helps. Regards, Sheo Narayan http://www.dotnetfunda.com Thirugnanamn, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
