>how to insert a unicode character such as amharic in sql server db from web application form
nvarchar data types accepts the value back end but not from the app. All I need is to read the values from the form and insert into the db table. It changes the unicode values such as Amharic alphabets to '???'

What I have tried:

I used nvarchar(max) data type for the field and it accepts the unicode values when inserted manually back end

The database will not change any characters that you enter. The problem will be when you try to display them without using the correct font.

how am I gonna do that? I input the chars on the form correctly but when I go back ende and see the values they are like "?????" as many as the number of the chars

Because the form will use the default font, which most likely does not include Amharic characters. See amharic font windows forms c - Google Search[^].
