I have a oracle 7.3 database on Unix which was created with US7ASCII
character set and a Oracle 7.3 database on NT 4.0 which was created with
WE8ISO8859P1 character set. We used this character sets because on Unix OS
US7ASCCII is the default character set and on Windows NT WE8ISO8859P1 is the
default character set.
The problem which I am facing is, I can take export backup from Oracle 7.3
(US7ASCII character set) on Unix and import it on Oracle 7.3 (WE8ISO8859P1
character set ) on NT 4.0 but I am not able to do the other way, i.e. take
export backup from Oracle 7.3 (WE8ISO8859P1 character set ) on NT 4.0 and
import it on Oracle 7.3 (US7ASCII character set) on Unix. Should I create
Oracle database on NT 4.0 with US7ASCII character set?
Would appreciate your help/suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
