Electrical Symbols - Ohms - micro

Hi,
would anyone be able to point me in the right direction on how to save
the
electrical symbols for ohms and micro in a sql server field.
Many thanks,Make sure you use NVARCHAR, and pass the character in a string with the N
prefix.
CREATE TABLE dbo.foo
(
symbol NVARCHAR(32)
);
GO
INSERT dbo.foo
SELECT N''; -- not sure if this will be correct in your newsreader
GO
SELECT symbol FROM dbo.foo;
GO
DROP TABLE foo;
GO
