Hello.
If you're upgrading from 4.0 read: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/charset-conversion.html If your tables were created in 4.1 you may use ALTER TABLE and ALTER DATABASE to change the table (or database encoding). See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/alter-table.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/alter-database.html MightyData <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What is the proper procedure to change the table (or database encoding) from > latin1 to UTF-8 with MySQL 4.1.x?
