Actually the database in Oracle is setup and functioning correctly in UTF-8 through the ORA_NLS. The application we wrote using various web service technologies (except for anything .NET :-) ) works wonderfully. It is only the extract we have with problems with.
In answer to the other reply above, yes we are using Oraperl. I was told we could not upgrade anything on the box originally. However, I did identify the possibility that Oraperl is to blame and have found the right Unix admin to add DBD:Oracle to the system so we can use it. Unfortunately the box is on the other part of the world for us, so this takes time for us to implement. Admitedly this is one of my only foray's into Perl and I love what I see so far. I am a C++ / Java person and now this has my interest totally.
Thank you for support and helpful hints!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
