Re: Recovering from Damaged Export File

Hello, jseeman

About year ago I wrote some code (C++, DOS) to recover data from damaged by wrong NLS_LANG settings export file for oracle 7. I haven't seen Oracle 6 export files, but I think that not very much things changed there. So, I'll think that your problem can be solved.
