Davide,
Those characters are not part of the SQL_ASCII character set. SQL_ASCII
is 7bit ascii, the characters you are trying to use are all 8bit
characters. You need to create your database with a character set that
supports the characters you are trying to store. LATIN1 or UNICODE
would be good choices.
thanks,
