Description:
There are several character sets commented out now in CharSetMap.cs, please enable (= uncomment) as many of them as possible. The comments near the code say that the developer wasn't sure about mappings, so I hereby contribute my assurance that win1250, win1250ch and cp1250 surely map to code page 1250 :-)

This will allow using CharSet=win1250 in the connection string.

How to repeat:
Try connecting to server using CharSet=win1250 in the connection string. You'll get an error saying that character set is not supported.

Suggested fix:
See description

This was fixed long ago.
