Hello, our Company is migrating from DBExpress to FireDAC but we found a strange behavior. In DBExpress we put in DBXConnections Characterset=UTF8 and everything was fine, now in FireDAC we did the same but the result of our query seems to ignore the characterset. If we manually decode the results are ok, but it feel strange. Are we missing something?

If we change the charset of the fields on the database the values are displayed well with FireDAC and DBX. We tried to change characterset on FireDAC and nothing changed, probably it's just as you said, the charset is read from the database.

I've prepared the test application with the sample database. It should be ready to use, the database is in the exe application with fbclient.dll https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qeKBiqdX9C4NVBdGpPZhcjUOF3aUV6aK/view?usp=sharing Thank you for your help and support!

I can provide a test application and database (firebird 2.5) if it can be usefull
