Description Adir Pekarevich CLA 2009-04-23 11:43:35 EDT 
Build ID: I20090313-0100

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Connect to i/so or z/os DB2
2. Open Data Source Explorer
3. Expand list of tables that includes bidi names
Result: bidi names are rendered wrongly

More information:
The reason of the problem is that bidi data is saved on legacy systems in visual format, while on windows it is rendered in the logical format
In order to display and edit this data correctly client controls have to learn how to display and edit visual bidi data or at least make bidi conversions for metadata
It is important to mention that some mechanism that allows to specify in which format bidi data is saved on the legacy system should be in place as well

We don't have the resources or time to focus on Bidi support for DTP in Galileo, so this will have to be pushed of to future.
