If you're certain that the data already in the database is in EUC_JP encoding, it would probably work to do a quick UPDATE on the pg_database.encoding entry for the database (and then start fresh backend sessions, since they won't notice otherwise). If there's data in there that is not correct per EUC_JP then this will create big problems, so don't say I didn't warn you ... regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
