I am unable to insert Hindi characters in Oracle 10g database. Whatever I try to insert appears as ?????? in database.

I converted datatype to NVarchar and tried to insert using following command

Insert into MyTable (MyColumn) values (N'MyUnicodeString');

Still appears as ?????

Tried to do same by passing parameters still not working.

Any help?
