Subject: RE: CLOB's and Character Sets
Hello Scott,
Since 8.1.5, CLOB columns are stored internally with AL16UTF16 charset, no
relation with NLS_CHARSET of the database (cf MOS doc : 257772.1).
Wich tool do you used to do your transfert beween the two databases ?
If you use expdp/impdp to transfert tables with CLOB column, it will work.
Regards.
Pierre

Objet : CLOB's and Character Sets
I have a customer that is trying to migrate CLOB data from one database to
another. The source database was created using the US7ASCII characterset. The
destination database was created using the AL32UTF8 characterset. The issue is
that special characters are not transferring properly. In the destination
database, all she sees is "?" in place of the character.
Other than rebuilding the new database with the US7ASCII characterset, which
will put the project way behind schedule, how can this be fixed? I was under
the impression that the AL32UTF8 characterset was a superset of US7ASCII and
should be able to handle the special characters.
