Hello,

I am wondering if there is any way to determine the character set used for
data in a table.

For example, a single database has 10 tables, six with 'latin1' characters,
two with 'cp1251' characters, and two with 'greek' characters.  The
character_set variable is set to 'latin1' on this database because most of
the data is in the latin1 character set.

However, the client programs will want to display the data from the
non-latin1 tables correctly when they do a SQL query.  Is there a way to
determine the type of
character used for data in a table apart from the character_set variable?

Thanks,

Matt Culbreth
