Hello all,

Ok so I'm rather new to the whole collation concept. I've read the documentation on the mySQL site regarding what it does. So I have to ask, the default setting seems to be "latin1_swedish_ci" but I'm using plain English. Would I need to change all my columns to "ascii_bin"?

Thanks,
Jisoo23
