SYMPTOMS
If you choose the Indic language setting and the Hindi locale from the Windows 2000 Regional options under Control Panel, you may get the following error message when you run Osql.exe from the command prompt:
However, Query Analyzer works fine with the Hindi locale and Indic language setting.
WORKAROUND
Use Query Analyzer instead of the osql utility.
MORE INFORMATION
Osql.exe calls the Setlocale function to get codepage information. However, Hindi does not have a codepage as most of the languages do. Thus, the Setlocale function fails because it does not have a codepage value to set.
