The problem probably is that the output encoding of the environment is set to cp437 and the unicode character cannot be converted to that encoding when doing <code>print(line)</code> that probably translates to the <code>self.old_out.write(value)</code>. Try to replace the <code>print()</code> inside the loop by writing to the file, like: <pre><code>with open('myoutput.txt', 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f: for line in cur: f.write(line) </code></pre> Well, but the cursor does not return a string line. It return a row (I guess tuple) of elements. Because of that you probably have to do something like that: <pre><code>with open('myoutput.txt', 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f: for row in cur: f.write(repr(row)) </code></pre> This may be enough for a diagnostic purpose. If you need some nicer string, you have to format it in some specific way. Also, you wrote: <pre><code> charset="utf8", use_unicode=True) </code></pre> If the <code>charset</code> is used, then <code>use_unicode=True</code> can be left out (it is implied by using the <code>charset</code>. If I recall correctly, the <code>charset='utf8'</code> is not any recognized encoding for Python. You have to use <code>charset='utf-8'</code> -- i.e. with dash or underscore between <code>utf</code> and <code>8</code>. Correction: The <code>utf8</code> probably works as it is one of the aliases. UPDATE based on comments... As the output to a file seems to be OK, the problem is related to the capabilities of the window used for the output of the <code>print</code> command. As the <code>cmd</code> knows only cp437, you have to use or another window (like a Unicode capable window of some GUI), or you have to tell the <code>cmd</code> to use another encoding. See the <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/q/388490/1346705">experience of others</a>. Basically, you have to tell the console: <pre><code>chcp 65001 </code></pre> to change accepted output encoding to UTF-8, or you can use another (non-Unicode) encoding that supports the wanted characters. Also, the console font should be capable to display the characters (i.e. to contain the glyphs, the images of the characters).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
