Ricardo,

Is your database compiled for multibyte support? And what character set
is the database you are connecting to created with? (to get the
database character set do a 'psql -l'). If the answer to the first
question is no or the answer to the second question is 'SQL_ASCII', then
only 7bit characters are supported.

thanks,
--Barry
