Did you tried just copy those 3.23 files into a newly installed 4.1 data
folder? What's happen?
Yes. I tried. The result is all Chinese words were turned into
unrecognized characters.
In my system, there are tens of databases, which include thousands of
tables. A very large system, I feel.

Subject: MySQL upgrade from 3.x to 4.1 for Chinese databases
Dear all,
On my server there are thousands of database files contenting Chinese
records. The total data volumn is over 20GB. Is there an easy way to
upgrade the whole system from MySQL 3.23.x to 4.1.x?
"mysqldump" is NOT a good way for me. It will be a hard and time costing
work. Is it possible to directly use the binary db files, "*.frm",
"*.MYI", "*.MYD", and keep the Chinese support? This is a very big and
important problem facing many Chinese users.
cheers,
Chenzhou
