Zahid,
Would you be more specific?

Are you able to type in Arabic with other programs. If not check if your computer/server is arabic enabled.

you need to set the language type in the database parameters...
in oracle the nls parameters,

in sql server, it involves selection of the character set, country specific error messages

both types of databases will accept the characters in unicode to store the characters...

other databases may have similar types of settings...check the documentation relevant to the specific database and version that you have...

display contect is in the browser is set in the meta tag by altering the charset to the appropriate values

<meta http-equiv=&quot;Content-Type&quot; content=&quot;text/html; charset=iso-8859-1&quot;>

from the access help function
Requirements for Asian, right-to-left, and other types of languages
Asian languages (Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean)
To enter ideographic characters for these languages, use one of the following operating systems:

Any language version of Microsoft Windows 2000
If you are running a language version of Windows 2000 that doesn't match the language that you want to type, you must first install support for the language, and then install the Input Method Editor (IME) for the language. Learn about IMEs.

Any language version of Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT version 4.0
If the language version of your operating system is the same as the language you want to type, IMEs are included with these systems. The Microsoft Office 2000 Proofing Tools includes updated IMEs for these systems.

If the language version of your operating system doesn't match the language you want to type, install a Global Input Method Editor (Global IME). Global IMEs allow you to enter Asian text in Microsoft Word, in Microsoft Outlook e-mail messages, and in Microsoft Internet Explorer. Other Office programs require an Asian operating system or Windows 2000 to allow you to enter Asian text. Learn about IMEs.

Baltic, Central European, Cyrillic, Greek, and Turkish languages
To enter characters for these languages, use one of the following operating systems:

The corresponding language version of Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000
If you are running a language version of an operating system that doesn't match the language you want to type, install system support for that language.

Right-to-left languages (Arabic, Hebrew, Farsi, and Urdu)
To enter characters for these languages, use one of the following operating systems:

The corresponding language version of Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0


Any language version of Windows 2000
If you are running a language version of Windows 2000 that doesn't match the language you want to type, install system support for that language.
