Hi Michael,

thanks for your reply, but I think, you are wrong. With v$nls_parameters, you get NLS_CHARACTERSET, which is the characterset of the database, not the one, your client is using in fact
(just set NLS_LANG=america_american.us7ascii, use sqlplus  and query v$nls_parameters, it will show you the characterset of the database)

Anyway, thanks
 Thomas
