Hi All,

Our Cognos 8.4.1 BI Suite Is installed on a virtual partition on Cognos server (Windows 2003).
We are connecting to a table in DB2 database by using ODBC. We have imported a table into Framework manager and when we test the table the Russian characters in Cyrillic(UCS-2) are not supported and we get blank unsupported rectangular boxes. Further the Russian data in DB2 table is in Unicode UCS-2 format.
Can you please let me know if Cognos 8.4.1 supports UCS-2 character encoding for Russian Unicode and do we need to install any language pack or Unicode supported Russian Cyrillic font or modify some settings to get rid of this issue.

Thanks in Advance!!!
