Hi,
As this have nothing to do with the OS I didn't mention it as for the oracle version it is 8.1.5 (source) and 8.1.7 (target) and the solution of exporting/importing in US7ASCII (for the NLS_LANG) just did not work (that why I posted my message) it looses all the special french characteres any other solution

Thanks in advance
