I have set my mysql database, tables and columns to be charset utf8mb4.
I have set the .asp page to have Response.charset="utf-8"



How do write a select where I check if the rs is including åäö characters?



If I use the below and the variable is without åäö then it works, but if the variable contains a word with åäö, then it doesn´t find it!



thepassword="trött"
sql = "SELECT * FROM table where password = '"& thepassword &"' ;"
set rs = conn.Execute (sql)


Any input really appreciated, thanks.

    Using parameterized queries might help you with that as the SQL engine takes care of escaping certain characters and properly preparing the query for you. See: How do I create a parameterized SQL query? Why Should I?

    There are other steps you need to check not just setting Response.Charset = "UTF-8", here is a similar question that should help.
