Unicode

Hello Shachaf,
We've been aware for the last few months that some of the controls used
in SQL Compare and SQL Data Compare are not Unicode-aware, resulting in
unpredictable results when using Hebrew characters. Sometimes they display
properly, and other times, garbage characters appear instead.
With the next version of software due out in a few weeks, the problem
should be gone because we are writing the next version in Microsoft .Net.
.Net's controls are, as far as we know, all Unicode aware.
Thanks,
-Brian Donahue
