Hi All,
I'm trying to import a dump that was done in WE8ISO8859P1 with Oracle 9i 9.2.0.5.0 into the Western European XE version on Windows XP Professional SP2.
I get an IMP-00037 Character set marker unknown error
I've tried setting NLS_LANG to American_UNITED KINGDOM.WE8ISO8859P1 but the same result. Obviously I'm just a novice but you've to start somewhere right, any help appreciated
