Thanks, some questions though:

How can we keep this data up to date? Care to share your sources?

All characters besides A-Z seems garbled to me. Can you reformat them as Unicode?

All of these date taken from this db: http://downloads.mysql.com/docs/world.sql.zip and i just formatted for SQL server, so i don't know how to make these date updated, and if you can't see some characters just change your DB collation, or open the mysql original one.

Thanks,
