Description:
i use visual basic with mysql. But i can't use visual data objects with mysql. Because Exmp. Adodc, i build connection string then i can't see my table names in original. My Table Names and datas are in Turkish.
is there any choice to select charset in connection string?
in java odbc it is avaible, buy in odbc it's not.

i only use my datas with code object. Becuse i execute "Set Names 'latin5';" at first

How to repeat:
in visual basiv, insert an adodc contol, then connect to database and select source table

Suggested fix:
in odbc connection string we can say and add  "Charset=latin5"
