Hmm, can't reproduce it here - however, I am using a 5.1 server.

The MySQL connector works fine here, both in reading and writing such
data, whereas the Connector/ODBC has problems writing it (but no
problems reading it), and the Connector/J (not surprising) has no
problems in reading and writing.


However, I so far failed to completely understand MySQL's character set
/ encoding concept in all facets :), so it might be that there's
something different in the setup of our servers, which I can't imagine
at the moment.

I'd like to encourage you to submit an issue for this, component
"Database Access", sub component "MySQL Connector/OOo", at
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/enter_bug.cgi?component=Database%20access,
for further investigations by our QA team. Sorry for not having any
better idea at the moment.

Thanks & Ciao
Frank
