Look for note 66320.1

I interpreted it as saying that to convert the database it had to be ex/imported
I was on 8.0.5 when I checked this out so maybe it's different in 8i

To convert WE8IS08859P1 to WE8IS08859P15..would I need to do the export/import??Metalink presents the following solution (in restricted session):

alter database character set WE8ISO8859P15;

Also you might change the national character set:

alter database national character set WE8ISO8859P15;

Thanks in advance...

Unfortunately No.

You need to re-create the database and export / import the data

There are some differnces with other characters for which the conversion could pose problems. Info can be found on metalink
