C# insert data with special characters to DB2?

Hi all,

The saga with moving the database from SQL server to DB2 continues.

My C# code is upchucking on an update statement. One column has special characters and I get a conversion error on the update. I tried to change the column on DB2 to CCSID 65535 but I still get a conversion error - different one this time.

Any thoughts? Can I do something fun with the SQL statement? Connection String? This is a parameterized query using AddWithValue.
Regex or scanning the column every time seems like the least desirable solution.

Thanks.
Vicki Wilson
