I have added nvarchar, but can't view the Arabic data. In my column already have Arabic script. but it shows as ?CE. cannot able to view it. For inserting new data in Arabic format I can add it by N' Arabic script'. Its working. But I already have some datas in database in Arabic scripts. Can't able to view it.
