Hi.
I have been using Firebird with Delphi apps for some time now. I
always have created my databases with the default Charset of NONE and
just go about my way. Now I am wondering if perhaps I should be using
some otherdefault character set to avert some future problem I may be
creating for myself using NONE. My clients are in the US, speak
english and all run on Win32 (2000,XP). I would appreciate any tips
and suggestions as to which charset and collation is a good default
choice. What do I do to move current data from "NONE" charset toa new
charset?
Thanks.

I am primarily using Firebird 1.5 (and using FB2 Beta for internal
development projects).
