What datatype does the columns have? varchar or nvarchar?

Exactly which collation are you using? There are a whole number of
collations with the name starting with "SQL_Latin".

Do all Turkish characters get mashed? Or only some? Does ç (lowercase C with
cedilla) work? If not, how do you see it in EM? How does the dotless
lowercase i get represented?

Which client API do you use in Delphi?
