    Hello,

    What is the datatype of the tpl_poubelle column? I think that Data Compare always puts the N at the front of every text value. I can see how this could potentially cause a problem with a non-Unicode field like text or varchar or char.

    Hello,

    sorry for the delay... :-(

    The datatype is text.

    As I said, it append only on the production server, not went I test it on development server. Environnement problem?

    I erase some blanks and the problem disappear.

    Thnaks.

    Perhaps a different collation order on the column between these two databases? Maybe you can use SQL Compare to point this out.
