WebCatalog is one of the very few net catalog products on ANY platform that supports double-byte characters. We have been usuing v1.6.1 successfully with Japanese charcters being served from the templates *and* database (www.crazyshirts.com). I have had no problem serving double-byte characters so far from v 2.0. The NT version I believe doesn't completely support double-byte characters...yet. You should have no problem working with Japanese character sets. Have fun working with Japanese!Aloha,Olin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Olin Kealoha Lagon (v) 808.539.3978 Director of Website Creation & Sales (f) 808.539.3766 WorldPoint Interactive, Inc.
