Hi list!
Is there any relation between the locale and character set?
For example if i store the data as sql_ascii can i still use the locale
as utf-8?
In my case i have the data stored as ascii but i just know it is
actually utf-8 and i am doing upgrade ,
So i would like to leave the ascii as internal format in case there are
any non legal chars in db
but allow text search on non english characters .
Note that i don't want any server - client data conversion,i just want
the server assume that it
is dealing with utf-8.
Thanks.
Evgeny.
