Niamath,
Metalink has a technical note (119164.1) which shows which character sets
are valid for the ALTER DATABSE CHARACTER SET
command.
This
indicates that you won't be able to change the character
set.

Changing the character set of a database
Hi ,
We presently have a database with "EE8ISO8859P2"
character set . Can I change it to the US7ASCII char set?
Learnt from the documentation that if the
current character set is a subset of the character set you want to change to ,
Oracle does allow that. But the question is whether US7ASCII is a subset of
"EE8ISO8859P2"
TIA..
Regards
Niamath
