Subject Re: [ib-support] changing character set

Hello enio,

eyc> I have a large database in a library, character set is set to none.
eyc> I'm brasilian and I need change it to WIN1252 and use collate
eyc> PXW_INTL850

eyc> Are there how do this and preserve the data ?

I did a pump of the data using the IBPump utility
(http://www.geocities.com/poloziouk/IBDataPump.html) of Alexandre
Poloziouk. You have to build up a new Database of the metadata of the
source changing them manually. IBPump moves the data to the new one.

I don't know if it's a overkill in this case from NONE to WIN1252, but it is secure.
