Is there any Collation type in MySQL which supports Case Sensitive.
I had all type of collation in MySQL they all have _ci at the end of their name so they are case Insensitive collation.
According to MySQL Manual http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/charset-mysql.html you should be able to set collation to
_csfor case sensitivity. You can get a list of_cscollations by executingSHOW COLLATION WHERE COLLATION LIKE "%_cs"queryAfter a little research:
Apparently there are no
utf8_*_csin MySQL (yet). If you need case sensitive collation for utf8 fields, you should useutf8_bin. This will mess upORDER BY, but this can be fixed byORDER BY column COLLATE utf8_general_ciSource: http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?103,19380,200971#msg-200971 and http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?103,156527,198794#msg-198794
