That's certainly a good venue for my server, but my development machine is 
using 4.1.12a-nt., and I'm still experiencing the issue.. Here's an 
interesting distinction. One of my apps doesn't have this issue. The 
difference? When I get info on the table, the CREATE statement ends this 
way "ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1", whereas  my new one doesn't. 
Looks like I've got to update the table with a different charset.
