Обсуждение: UNICODE -> SJIS problem

I'm trying to develop an international app that will work for the far east countries too.
Working with the PostgreSQL 7.3 and have created a database with the Unicode encoding (createdb -E unicode ...)
I have an external data source that holds some japaneese data in the UTF-8 encoding.
I'm managing to read this data source and insert the data into my postgres database.
The troubles start when I'm try to display the data using SJIS client encoding. The data is returned as unicode
(UTF-8). 

Please help.

Then your attempts to try to display the data as SJIS were unsuccessful,
but it's hard to tell why if you don't provide a lot more detail than
this.

pg_client_encoding ?
Did you set to unicode ?
