MySQL Users,
I know from the manual that I can change the collation set of a table
with the following command:
ALTER TABLE `mytable` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci
And that I can do this to alter a column of a table to change its collation:
ALTER TABLE `mytable` CHANGE `column` `column` CHARACTER SET utf8
COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci
But what I can't seem to find is the ability to change more than one at
a time.
Neither of these work:
ALTER TABLE * DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci
ALTER TABLE * CHANGE * CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci WHERE
COLLATE=latin_swedish_ci
Is there no way to make every instance of "latin_swedish_ci" in a
database, both on the table and the column level, turn to "utf8_unicode_ci"?
I have a huge database to work with, and the prospect of doing this by
hand is rather unappealing.
Any advice or information would be much appreciated.
