Hi,
one of our customer has a problem regarding an export of characters
from a oracle 8i database.
The export is ascii based, which means that values for the db will be
directly written to a .txt file.
In poland one of our customer is fine with the settings in order to
export polish characters.
In greece however this is not the case.
As much as I understood so far is, that it has something to do with the
following settings
In windows registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HOME0\NLS_LANG
in Oracle
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET
and
NLS_CHARACTERSET
However I am not sure how to set those values correctly in order to
store greek characters and in
order to export them correctly.
Present settings are
Win-Registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HOME0\NLS_LANG=GREEK_GREECE.EL8MSWIN1253
Oracle:
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET=UTF8
NLS_CHARACTERSET=UTF8
Does anbody know how the correct settings should be?
Thanks
Poncho
