Yes to what has been said. Collation needs to be same.

I use utf8_general_ci and make sure that all tables and columns use that as well as the DB itself.

If you don't have "alter" permissions, you can't do anything about this. Maybe ask the admin to make the change?

Anyone have any information on the following error:

General error: Illegal mix of collations (utf8_general_ci,IMPLICIT) and (latin1_swedish_ci,COERCIBLE) for operation 'UNION'

I am working on finding out from the host what version of MySQL is currently running.
