SQL Server Cyrillic Writing '?????'

Question

I am running a SQL Server 2008 R2 and I have a database containing multilingual words.

For Cyrillic words I only see \'???????\'

The data type is nvarchar(255),

Answer 1

When you add data to the nvarchar column, use the prefix N

Insert into table(nvarchar_col)
select N'your Cyrillic words'
