| Hello I have a little problem. I backup my database in an sql file (data.sql). The database contains greek text.I checked the file and the text is written in a misundestandable language like this :"¿ÃŽÂ´ÃŽÂµÃ�…Ã�„ική ΚίνηÃ�ƒÎ· ΦοιÃ�„ÎÂ"Every character in greek is like this.Is there any way, or any script to run and fix the encoding of the sql file ???If anyone knows how to restore my sql file please post. thanks in advance...Imagination is more importan than knowledge... (A.E.) |

| I am not clear whether your have backedup over an existing .sql file or when you backed up, or you have saved the backup file with .sql extension. If second is the case (Or even in the first case, if you have choosen overwrite option) you can restore from the file without any change to the file.Cheers,Preethiviraj KulasinghamMCITP: DBA |
