I have a FB 1.0.3 Database, with a following DDL:
SET SQL DIALECT 3;
SET NAMES WIN1251;
CREATE DATABASE 'YMKM:C:\Develop\ezTask\Db\ezt1.fdb'
USER 'SYSDBA' PASSWORD 'masterkey'
PAGE_SIZE 16384
DEFAULT CHARACTER SET WIN1251;
I'm a newbie to Lazarus, trying to switch from Delphi 7
and the most simple thing brought me "on my knees" - I cannot achieve a normal work with this DB on an LCL form.
All the DBxxx components display only the ???? (question marks) instead of russian text in a DB, while Latin text in the very same filed are displayed OK
the only Lazarus relevant setting in Lazrus, that I could find, is a property Charset of TIBConnection. Of course I set it to "WIN1251", as I would normally do in Delphi, but.. the result is on a screenshot.
