The Table Options tab allows you to change the storage engine and default character set of your table.

The potential storage engines are listed in a drop-down list box. Select a particular engine to display a brief summary of that engine's features and capabilities.

Under Windows, engines that are not available are shown in red. Under Mac OS X, unavailable engines are grayed out and under Linux there is no differentiation. If your server has built-in support for the Falcon engine, that engine will show up in the list of available engines. Otherwise, the Falcon engine does not show at all.

To change the storage engine for your table, select the desired storage engine from the list box.

To change the default character set or collation of your table, choose a new option from the drop-down list of available character sets.
