Another way of making hebrew sorting/grouping work is by using VARCHAR BINARY instead of VARCHAR. I never tested it, though.

Hi, As far as I remember you should be able to insert hebrew characters by default (explain what exactly "doesn't work"). If you compile it by yourself, you probably want to use some --with-charset=hebrew or something similar (run ./configure --help..), which adds some hebrew support, such as sorting by the hebrew aleph-bet. If you downloaded a precompiled version, I'm not sure if hebrew is already enabled.- Oren On Sat, 21 Dec 2002, Ben Hornedo wrote:All: A quick question (hopefully with a quick answer). I have MySQL setup on a machine and I'm trying to configure it so I can store Hebrew text (names, addresses, etc.). I tried using set-character-set=hebrew in the my.cnf file but that didn't seem to work. Could anyone point me in the right direction as far as setting up MySQL to work with Hebrew text?
