You have to write a line like this into your my.cnf (in the C: root directory):
default-character-set=...
or whatever you like. You can find examples in your mysql directory for the my.cnf file.
Oh, yes! You're from Hong Kong. So maybe you need this:
default-character-set=big5

Hi all, I've checked the doco and found that it can be changed by ./configure under Linux, but how do I change the default charset of MySQL under Win2K. Do I have to re-compile the source or better yet can I change it on the fly or using WinMySQLAdmin or something?TIA Paul --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
