Re: Question marks instead of emoji when exporting from the mysql database to a .sql file

National flags are not represented as single characters in Unicode. Instead the emjois are encoded as two characters from the set of "Regional indicator symbols". In your example it will be the ones corresponding to the letters U and S. Notepad presumably does not support these and does not know how to render them. I see the same if I paste your flag into my Emacs: it shows the hex codes.
