Say, do you want a little utility program in Java or C that will print
the hexadecimal values of the characters in a string? Basically, it
would be a command-line utility, so you would copy the text and then
paste
I was not aware that you were running VB.
In perl and PHP we have a function do do this for us.
in perl:
$qtext=$dbh-quote($text);
$dbh-execute(insert into mytable set myvariable = $qtext);
The above quote() function will put a \ in fronnt of all the special
characters listed in the manual.

These in clude '\ and the hex 00 character.
FWIW, before anyone copies and pastes
It is already quoted. That's the point.

Your webform application must call the appropriate
Multiple databases on multiple servers?
That is what I thought...which I assume means multiple machines (not an
option).
For future reference, MySQL can actually run multiple servers with
different configurations on a single machine in Linux. (*BSD and Mac OS
X, too, I think.) They are
I found a solution!!!
Hooray!
***Replace all backlashes with two backslashes.***
You probably want to consider whether you want to replace all quotes
with backslash-quote, as well. Backslashes in the English text would
only show up for something like file paths on MS OSses, but your

Can I make a minor recommendation that doesn't help your current
situation at all?
Use UTF-8.

Here's an update on this issue: The problem is when copy/pasting
Japanese characters into MySQL, certain characters are being corrupted.
I've ruled out Word as the problem.

Practically the first odd thing mentioned is escape sequences. Keep in
mind that the ASCII code for the backslash character, which is used to
initiate escape

The problem characters are the ASCII backslash and the ASCII tilde -
Good to know, I will eliminate those, although there are still many more
problem characters.
Well, actually, the one-byte backslash and tilde you can leave alone.

Hi Xuefer,
What are you talking about? A lot of people are using MySQL without any
problems with multibyte characters. Please post a reference URL, with
perhaps a detailed explanation of the problem -- you mentioned you have
brought this to the attention of people already, please post a relevant
