Does DB2 have Arabic language and/or any other bi-directional (bidi) language support? If so, when was it included and where can I find such info?

Thanks.

As for messages in Arabic, I don't believe DB2 currently supports this. But you should be able to use a UTF-8 database to store arabic data. As for text searches using the Arabic language, DB2 searches from left to right so the text would have to be inserted into the table in the opposite manner as it would be read.
