Yeah.  That was the _second_ thing that came to mind.  ;)

So, just to be sure:

1)  Start a %(&@#*(&% transaction
2)  Set the column to NULL for all rows, undoing my stupidity
3)  Issue the CORRECT SQL statement, and that will take care of the
    character conversion problem
4)  COMMIT said transaction after verifying that I'm not doing
    something stupid _again_

Is this correct?

Happily, I am a novice at this, and I do not have any user-defined
functions.  Very simple database.  :)

Thank you so much!
