Is your column set
We're finding that, when working with the em dash character, the LEFT and
LENGTH functions don't work well together. This query shows trying to
strip off the last character from a string containing an em dash:
mysql select LEFT('031492349−0002,', LENGTH('031492349−0002,') - 1),

LENGTH() measures bytes, CHAR_LENGTH() measures characters. There's
little use for LENGTH() for anything else then raw bytes.
