Description:
Server 4.1.12, using cp1250 through ODBC works, when trying to use .net connector 'cp1250 is not supported' appears in both cases I use charset in connection string or not.

How to repeat:
Settin default character set for server in my.ini to cp1250 or using charset=cp1250 in connection string in .net connector

Could you please write here table definition and sample test case ?

Example of table

CREATE TABLE `dotdata55`.`kl_sample2` (
  `Klient_c` MEDIUMINT(8) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `Prijmeni` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
  `Jmeno` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
  `Titul` VARCHAR(50),
  `Pohlavi` TINYINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
  `Datum_nar` DATE,
  `Narodnost` VARCHAR(45),
  `Statni_pris` VARCHAR(25),
  `Ulice_a_cp` VARCHAR(150) NOT NULL,
  `Obec` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
  `PSC` VARCHAR(8) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY(`Klient_c`)
)
ENGINE = MYISAM;

Here is a sample of data, but I'm afraid it is damaged through export. Originaly the data is in cp1250 and if I view them through MyODBC (from MS Access) it's right if server is configured to default character set cp1250. But with this settings I can't connect to the server through .net connector, so I must use latin2 as def. charset. If i change the setting directly in table (i.e. server=latin2, table=cp1250), the connection is opened by .net connector and the same error occurs when try to read data from this table, e.g. by mysqldataadapter.fill method. I think this does not depend on data values in table. If it helps, I can send the buffer tracing displaying with error message.
So the data (copied from csv, dont know if it is useful...)

Thank you for solving! Now I can't find more info about how to access the source repository of this connector and build the version. Or, is it possible to say approximately when the next release is available?

Noted in Connector/NET 1.0.5 changelog.
[18 Jul 2005 12:20] Miloslav Siroky 
But no documentation for Connector/Net is available on the web, so I cannot get the 1.0.5 changelog. There is only Connector/J and ODBC documentation
