Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Export Character Set
Hi,
an export is always done in the character set of the session. You can set
this set using the
NLS_LANG environment variable, e.g.
set NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1. The startup of the Enterprise
Manager
probably sets this variable.
On a Windows client, you can set this variable in the registry.
