从excel导出带有外来字符的csv以导入MySQL

Question

When I export this from Excel in a csv file to import into MySQL

Bl Michał Sopoćko, Priest

I get this

Bl Micha? Sopo?ko

Is there a way to export the file to have the right characters?

Answer 1

First you should check the encoding option that was specified during the export from Excel (in save dialog -> Tools button -> Web options -> Encoding Tab).

Next try to convert database table to this encoding:

ALTER TABLE <table_name> CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET <character_set> COLLATE <collate_name>
