 Since SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS is share code page with iso-8859-1,
 it's indeed a little funny. But as I noted in my previous post, the
 characters you have problem with are not in iso-8859-1 - these code
 points are control characters to 8859-1. In Windows Latin-1 they are
 indeed printable characters.
 
 My guess is that the free jtds takes a strict definiton of what is
 8859-1. But I don't it, so you should inquire in a forum for that driver.

 No.
