Hello Mr. Ilic Aleksandar,
There is one simple solution for you.
You can use AbiWord on Linux, read MS Word DOC , save into a text
format and use load_file() function to save a text in MySQL. MySQL
itself does not care for character encoding, except when it comes to
sorting and lower / upper case conversion. Then you can start MySQL
with latin2 character set and get those too.
Oh yes and you can write to me in your mother tongue ...
Regards,
Sinisa
