Re: Install Oracle XE with character set WE8ISO8859P1

Basically, you can't choose the codepage during installation.

There are 2 versions of XE - one universal one with a multibyte unicode codepage and one with a LATIN1 codepage. So, you downloaded the universal. If you want an ISO8859P1 codepage - download the western european one: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/xe/htdocs/102xelinsoft.html

cheers,
Kurt
