Howdy All!
How do I activate unicode support for my tables?
I searched the mysql manual and found a section that says "MySQL software now offers extensive Unicode (UTF8) support" but I could not find a section that went through how to do it.
Secondly, if I turn on unicode support for a tables, what is the best way to
get the unicode data into and out of the database in such a way that it
stays as unicode? For example, when I paste unicode characters into a DOS
screen, they are translated into some other characters.
Thanks for any advice!
Rob :) :-> :-}
