Hi, I'm having a problem with french characters when performing a database dump from the console window on a Windows XP machine.

For example a field containing :Midi-Pyrénées will appear as Midi-Pyr‚n‚es when exported.

mysqldump -u root -p mydb --default-character-set=utf8 > mydb-backup.sql

I've tried using the character set latin1 but still no go.

Any help would but great.

Thanks in advanced.
