two text fields of a MyISAM table with utf8_general_ci interclassement are imported choosing UTF-8 Universal Alphabet (Unicode UTF8).
All accented french characters are lost in the list.

Is it necessary to add this type of SQL Command, SET CHARACTER SET `utf8`, before the SELECT command.

Usually, my connection on this database include these declarations :
SET CHARACTER SET `utf8`
SET NAMES `utf8`

Thanks for any help

Not sure I understand your request. Is there something missing in MaxBulk Mailer?

MaxBulk Mailer is UTF-8 and actually expect UTF-8 data. I guess that is the problem for you, am I wrong? You talk about issuing a command to set the character set to UTF-8 reason why I asked about what do you think is missing, MaxBulk Mailer doesn't issue that command.

Nice if MaxBulk Mailer is UTF8; it is not a problem.

My SQL request give to MaxBulk Mailer, UTF8 datas and the responce list lost all accented french chars like this : Cl�mence (Clémence);
I can't find a solution.
I'am on MacOSX 10.7.2
In Library/Application Support/Maxprog/MaxBulk Mailer/Listes i find my list, a text file; if i open it with BBEdit, it says 'BBEdit could not determine the encoding. Please choose an encoding to continue loading the file.

It is now urgent I find a solution !

It seems you speak a good french language ?
Thanks.

MaxBulk Mailer is 100% UTF-8 native, that includes lists and documents. Indeed, list files and documents are also saved in UTF-8. When I open my lists here with TextWrangler (same as BBEdit), they are all identified as 'Unicode UTF-8'.

About your original problem, the SQL import window has a text encoding pull-down menu. If you set that encoding to your database encoding MaxBulk Mailer will then know the data source encoding and will convert the data into UTF-8 properly.

I speak french, I am french but I don't live in a french speaking country so I don't use french very often. I write french when necessary of course.

J'ai une série de copies d'écrans que je pourrais vous envoyer pour que vous puissiez comprendre la situation. Où puis-je vous les envoyer ?
Car j'ai bien sûr sélectionné, dans le dialogue d'importation : codage du texte => UTF-8 Universal Alphabet (Unicode UTF8).
Je peux même vous passer le fichier texte confectionné à la suite de l'import.

Merci.
PS: de quelle région êtes vous originaire; moi je suis à Grenoble et il neige en ville en ce moment.
Où sont basées vos activités de développement.

Olivier.

Vous pouvez envoyez cela ici mais je penses que si il y a un problème c'est que l'encodage n'est pas sélectionné correctement. Peut être que votre DB an faites n'est pas exporté en UTF-8.

Je suis de La Rochelle mais cela fait 25 ans que je vis en Espagne, ici par contre pas de neige :( moi à grenoble j'allais skier avant, aux Alpes D'huez.

Bonjour (de Normandie :wink:) ,

je rencontre exactement le même souci, à savoir que les caractères accentués apparaissent bizarrement dans le corps du message :

"� une journ�e" au lieu de : "à une journée".

Existe-t'il une solution à ce problème ?

Merci !

Mettez l'encode sur UTF-8.
