How do I convert UTF-8 data from Classic asp Form

I am in the process of "modernizing" a classic asp application that uses a Access 2000 database.

I rewrote the database on SQL Server 2008r2 and changed all of the fields to use the newer unicode enabled nchar, nvarchar, ntext and imported the old data. I also switched to IIS 7 from IIS 6

The classic asp is collecting and writing data using UTF-8.

Now the application shows the OLD data correctly in the web pages but as son as I touch it ie: UPDATE or INSERT the data is getting corrupted. I assume I need to somehow convert the UTF-8 data from the classic asp to UCS-2 somehow before I write the data into SQL server.

But how?

NOTE: it seems that sql server auto converted the utf-8 data into a usable format when it imported the data from access.

You have to tell SQL Server 2008 that you are sending in unicode data by adding an N to the front of your insert value. so its like this

strTest = "Служба мгновенных сообщений"
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblTest (test) VALUES (N'"&strTest&"')"

The N tells SQL server to treat the Contents as Unicode. and does not corrupt the data.

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239530 for further info.

Here is test code Run on Classic ASP IIS 7 SQL Server 2008r2

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblTest](
    [test] [nvarchar](255) NULL,
    [id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL

ASP Page

<%

Response.CodePage = 65001
Response.CharSet = "utf-8" 

strTest = Request("Test")

Set cnn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
strConnectionString = Application("DBConnStr")
cnn.Open strConnectionString



strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblTest (test) VALUES (N'"&strTest&"')"
Set rsData = cnn.Execute(strSQL)
