Hello, I have problem with connection from MS Access to mySQL. In Access I
have connected tables to mySQL. In all tables strings columns have charset
UTF8. In mySQL I can see "ê ó ¼ ¿ ¶ æ...." Unfortunately, in linked
tables in Access instead of special letters I see question marks: "?"

For instance: waê -> wa? wêo¼aaa -> w?o?aaa
What could I do to repair this problem? Thank You

How do you connect Access to MySQL? ODBC? If so, what character set is
configured for this connection.

Thanks! Yes it's ODBC. I use mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.25-win32.ms, but
I don't know how to set character for this connection A lot of reading
and I see that MS Access probaly has cp-1250 Please, could You help me?

Are you sure the data is corrupted in mysql. I've made the experience
that phpmyadmin very often shows a diffrent charset thaan is in the
db. Have you checked from a terminal with commandline sql?

cp1250 can usually be stored as latin1 or utf8 given necessary
conversion beforehand
