I am using Rational ClearQuest, and am using the CQ Import process to import
from a csv file which I produced on a linux box.

The linux backend database is Oracle, and is a utf8 database.
The windows box I am using to do the import (there is no import binary on
linux), thinks it is WINDOWS-1252

My csv file has some spanish characters. I can see them in the csv file i
produce. However, when I copy from linux (any means like scp, or a samba mount
point), the file characters actually change.

I have tried installing iconv (using cygwin), and tried:
$ iconv -s -c -f UTF-8 -t WINDOWS-1252 file > newfile

It does not look the same as when it was on linux.

Does anyone know what else I could do, to copy a utf8 file to a windows-1252
file?
