Subject: Problem with German Umlauts - MSSQL Database - rake Migration

Hello all,

I habe the follow Migration Script:

class ImportFirmen < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    f = Mitarbeiter.find(:all, :select => :Firma, :group => :Firma)
    f.each do |ff|
      Firma.create(:description => ff.Firma)
      print "\n"
    end
  end

  def self.down
    Firma.delete_all
  end


When i use the rake db:migrate command, the German Umlauts will show as ? and write it so in the Database

In the Console this will work fine.

Any Ideas?
