help needed to solve exp/imp problem

Hi There,

I've made a grave mistake when exporting the full database. The character set of the database
was ZHT16BIG5, which is a 2-byte Traditional Chinese character set used in Taiwan. When doing
the export, I forgot to set the NLS_LANG environment variable, which by default was US7ASCII.

I have trouble importing the data back now. The messages are

IMP-00016: required character set conversion (type 1 to 865) not supported
IMP-00021: operating system error - error code (dec 2, hex 0x2) IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully

What can I do to solve it?

Thanks in advance.
