The link above confirms "N" added before the field data works as it did with MS-SQL and MySQL. There is also a TO_NCHAR Function that you may try using. <blockquote> Example 6-1 Populating the Customer Table Using the TO_NCHAR Function The TO_NCHAR function converts the data at run time, while the N function converts the data at compilation time. INSERT INTO customers VALUES (1000, TO_NCHAR('John Smith'),N'500 Oracle Parkway',sysdate); </blockquote> The above link is a good source of relevant information. Hope it could help you. @Amit & Shailendra,

Example 6-1 Populating the Customer Table Using the TO_NCHAR Function
The TO_NCHAR function converts the data at run time, while the N function converts the data at compilation time.

INSERT INTO customers VALUES (1000,
TO_NCHAR(’John Smith’),N’500 Oracle Parkway’,sysdate);
