In JDK 1.1.5(JDBC-ODBC 1.1001), I can not correctly display the Chinese strings queried from the Access database. 
The Chinese strings I got seemed not Big5 Code, although they are Big5 code in database.
Furthermore, I can not insert Chinese string to database.

In JDK 1.2beta2 (JDBC-ODBC 1.2001), luckily, I can queried the Chinese string from database and display it.
However, I can not insert or update the table with more than one column have Chinese string values.

You can test it just use the simpleselect.java program.

10/14/99 eval1127@eng -- committed to be fixed in (final) kestrel, based on bug #'s 4106306, 4106617, as well.

This report is equal to Bug ID 4053824.

The reason JDBC-ODBC bridge can't pass DBCS string is that
sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcObject#CharsToBytes() calls
 "nextCharIndex()" method instead of
      ^^^^
 "nextByteIndex()" method of sun.io.CharToByteConverter class.
      ^^^^

You should correct CharsToBytes() method like follow.

========================================
//concat converted array onto return array
// byte[] tRetBytes=new byte[retBytes.length + toBytes.nextCharIndex()];
byte[] tRetBytes=new byte[retBytes.length + toBytes.nextByteIndex()];
System.arraycopy(retBytes, 0, tRetBytes, 0, retBytes.length);
//System.arraycopy(outBuf, 0, tRetBytes, retBytes.length, toBytes.nextCharIndex());
System.arraycopy(outBuf, 0, tRetBytes, retBytes.length, toBytes.nextByteIndex());
retBytes=new byte [tRetBytes.length];
System.arraycopy(tRetBytes, 0, retBytes, 0, tRetBytes.length);
========================================

This is VERY IMPORTANT BUG for Japanese developer!!
So please correct rapidly!!

java version "1.2"
Classic VM (build JDK-1.2-V, native threads)

Jdbc-odbc driver can't transefer Chinese char. query string, eg:
    ...
    String url = "jdbc:odbc:map263";
    try{
	Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
        Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "sa", "");
        Statement stmt = c.createStatement();
        String sqlstr = "select id, roadname, class from road where roadname
like '??????%'";
        ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sqlstr);
        if(rs != null)
        {
            System.out.println(sqlstr + " Conneted.");
        }
	        
        stmt.close();
        c.close();
    }catch(Exception e){
	e.printStackTrace();
   }

When I run this code, it will be report:
{{
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]
Unclosed quote before the character string '??????'.
}}
When the Chinese string more than 1 char(One Char is ok).
