Hi,

We have database with varchar colums. Is Irish language supported with varchar? Where can I find list of languages supported by varchar and nvarchar?

Bagora! That's a much more difficult question than you may think

I think you might want to read this:

and this (for sql server 2005):

So long as you are not using the dot above the consonant to represent séimhiú you should be ok without much configuration. I tested nvarchar with the text of Teanga Nódaithe (hope you can appreciate the joke). Of course as T-Charlie pointed out there are some things to consider... One such thing is should 'á' be treated the same as 'a'. But if you digest those articles, you should be fine.
