It's tedious to manually update each table's collation. Can someone
point me to info describing how to update the collations of all columns
in all tables across an entire db? I have a some latin1_swedish_ci
tables and utf8 tables mixed with mostly latin1_general_ci. After
experiencing an "ILLEGAL MIX OF COLLATIONS" error, I want to standardize
collations across all tables. Changing the collation for the db does
not affect the child tables, nor does doing th same for a table affect
the columns...arrgh. So, I have to update every column, table and the
db itself to the same collation individually. Suggestions?
