Mixing
Using Non-English text or string for Username display error message
I'm developing an asp.net website app that supports both English and Amharic languages. Here the problem is with amharic user registration page. when i use amharic text for user name in CreateUserWizard control and click the button to register user , error message displayed saying "The username is already in use." when i look into users table this username is not a duplicate. I am sure for this. So help me how to make it accept amharic text for the username? Help me please.

I'm on the 4th day to solve this. I read about a COLLATION issue but i fear the membership db may not work as it is expected to work. I tried to send the username to db like this string.Format("'N{0}'",txtUsername.Text). But ot solved

That format will just add an N to the name. An nvarchar parameter should be enough

I don't know any Amharic, so I don't know if it is possible for a "similar" name to exist that gets confused with this name? Anyway, you should not have to 'format' a text to get it accepted

After a day of my post, i come with a possible solution for my question. I google alot of things on the internet and come with Encryption and Decryption. For using non English text or unicode string (that is written in a different language) as a username and also as a password ,Encrypt them at code behind inside of appropriate events during user creation and also login events before sending into a membership database. And when retrived to display them should decrypt . I found this helpful and think this can help others. Facing the same challenge. If there is another way better than this please share with me.
