ANSI to OEM conversion
The conversion of characters that must occur when data is transferred from a database that stores character data using a specific code page to a client application on a computer that uses a different code page. Typically, Windows-based client computers use ANSI/ISO code pages, and some databases (for compatibility reasons) may use OEM code pages, such as the MS-DOS 437 code page or code page 850. | ||||
