Hi,

Unicode conversion is a process of Data migration from One non-unicode codepage(it can be single or MDMP or ambiguous codepage..) to Unicode codepage(supports multiple languages)

Application Undestanding: To view data in more than one Language

Technical Understanding: Conversion from non-unicode to unicode

i.e. 1 char = 1byte (non-unicode)

1 char=2 bytes (unicode)

so practically your data/structues are converted and increases the size of ur database.

The conversion is done using R3 tools( export/import ) so tools export data(non-unicode data) and converts during the run/fly and dumps a unicode data in the filesystem then later those dump files are imported to build the unicode database

Reward if useful.

Regards,

Raj.
