    Report Type: Feedback on an Encoding Proposal Opt Subject: Unicode

    I work for a large global organization. We are in the process of implementing a major Data management system. Our existing database is unicode the target server that IT manages is not. IT refuses to import the data saying they will not switch to unicode. What is the disadvantage of building our new oracle server to accept unicode? We have been battling this for 3 weeks and our IT oracle DBA's are not wanting to change. There argument is we never had to use unicode before. Please help.
