Hi there,
Is there anybody knows how can I save not latin dates in Oracle? I mean for example: Jalali(shamsi) calender or Arabic Calender(Hijri) instead of using Julian Calendar.
Currently we do this by saving this dates in varchar type and another equivalent Latin datetime(e.g. 2 columns).We perform operations on Latin and then manipulate the varchar column and ofcourse application always will see this varchar column.
-Thanks alot

By default Oracle uses the Gregorian calendar system. However, the following systems are supported (as documented in the Oracle 10g Database Globalization Support Guide):

- Japanese Imperial
- ROC Official
- Thai Buddha
- Persian
- Arabic Hijrah
- English Hijrah

Best regards.
