Hello.
Use MYSQL_SET_CHARSET_NAME option for mysql_options() function. See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysql-options.html [snip] Hello, could someone tell me if it is possible to change default settings for character_set_client, character_set_connection and character_set_results variables? They are always set to latin1 and I didn't find any way how to change their default value. I'm using MySQL 4.1.9-nt and MySQL ODBC 3.51. My applications are written in C++ Builder and I don't want to send command SET NAMES 'cp1250' whenever application opens connection.
