Hi, I'm having a problem with comparing international characters in strings in MySQL. I couldn't find any information in the manual that addresses the issue. MySQL seems to treat accented characters as equal to their non-accented counterparts. For example, the string `men' is treated as equal to the string `mén'; the string `sus' is treated as equal to the string `sús'. I encounter this problem when inserting such keys as primary indices into a table (it returns a duplicate entry error). I suspect this was done intentionally. Does anyone know if there's a way to turn this feature off? Or must I resort to dirty hacking? (I'm using 3.23.25-beta, which I guess isn't the most recent version) -- William <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
