Hi ranchers.
As you know, Mysql 4.0.4 use ISO-8859-1 charset by default.
I want to change this attribute, and I have read Mysql docs and find the following:
//******
To change the default set, use the --with-charset option
shell> ./configure --with-charset=CHARSET
//******
ok, but I am using WinXP, and I have installed Mysql in the dir "F:\MySQL"
so please tell how to deal with this command using WinXP.
(I mean, please give the right command for windows).

The ./configure stuff is usually done when you build something from source code on a unix/linux system. So it could be that you will have to do that somehow on your windows system.
On the other hand I just found this. It looks as if you can change the default character set when you start the server.

Getting someone to think and try something out is much more useful than just telling them the answer.
