If you want to change the database character set you can:
(a) recreate the database with the desired character set
(b) use ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET command if the new character set
is a strict superset of the current character set (use character set scanner utility to verify this).

To store greek characters in the database, choose the appropriate character set depending on your platform, e.g. EL8MSWIN1253 for Windows, EL8ISO8859P7 for unix, UTF8 for unicode, etc.
