Hello.
I think, that you should start with reading the appropriate pages of the manual: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/charset.htm [snip] Our host runs MySQL 4.1 and we have a number of datasets with Genealogical data in them. When a grave stone is translated to English often the meaning is lost or the translation is simply not accurate. So how easy or difficult would it be to actually hold the text in Hebrew purely for display purposes (don?t think we need to search it etc) within the data set. Thoughts appreciated."John Berman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: [snip] -- For technical support contracts, goto https://order.mysql.com/?ref=ensita This email is sponsored by Ensita.NET http://www.ensita.net/ __ ___ ___ ____ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ / Gleb Paharenko / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ [EMAIL PROTECTED] /_/ /_/\_, /___/\___\_\___/ MySQL AB / Ensita.NET <___/ www.mysql.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
