Dealing with a change in language/encoding

[jda]

Ruslan,

In anticipation of the addition of unicode, if I change a text 
field's encoding from "English" to "UTF8" (or Japanese, for that 
matter) in the baseobject, will Valentina automatically treat older 
databases correctly (will it consider the text in that field to be 
unicode)? Or must I export/import the data into a new database for 
Valentina to treat the text as being in the new encoding?
