title: How can I find non-ASCII characters in MySQL?
body: <p>I'm working with a MySQL database that has some data imported from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Excel" rel="noreferrer">Excel</a>. The data contains non-<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII" rel="noreferrer">ASCII</a> characters (em dashes, etc.) as well as hidden carriage returns or line feeds. Is there a way to find these records using MySQL?</p>
