  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I created table like this:-</p>
  
  <pre><code>DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `aa`;   
  
  CREATE TABLE  `aa` (
    `Id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    `Rins` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (`Id`)
  ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>ALTER TABLE aa MODIFY Rins VARCHAR(45)  CHARACTER SET UTF8
        COLLATE utf8_polish_ci;</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>But still I am getting Exception </p>
