Thanks. Is this something I can do through phpMyAdmin? I'm not used to working 
with MySQL directly and don't understand exactly what this command means:
shell> mysqldump [options] --all-databasesDoes "shell" mean I have to be 
working in some sort of command line program?

Also, if I can't figure this out and have to resort to creating new databases, 
should I just ignore the Collation feature, presumably letting it set a default 
setting, or should I enter a particular value?

Thanks.

David,
         Try MySQLDump which is set up to do just this.
