Hi,<br />
<br />
Do you want to lose the Greek characters or want to import them exactly the same way it is in source database?<br />
<br />
If you want to import the Greek chatacters you should keep NLS_LANG on both the source &amp;&nbsp;target servers.

Hi,

If you want to import the Greek chatacters you should keep NLS_LANG on both the source & target servers.

i have installed an oracle 9i database with EL8MSWIN1253 character set. I am trying to import a dmp file from another pc &nbsp;which uses a different character set. (export client is using <br />
WE8ISO8859P1 character set and export server is using EL8ISO8859P7 NCHAR character set). <br />
<br />
My problem is that i cant see the Greek characters correcty with Sqlplusw , Sqlplus worksheet or isqlplus). How can i fix this situation? Should i give some parameters in the imp utility or should i alter something in the registry?<br />
