We've discussed this topic last week on this mailing list.
You can set the environment variable NLS_LANG to 
AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8 (Language and zone does not matter)
to get latin characters.

The better solution would be to use the encoding defined 
in this variable in System.Data.OracleClient or use
OCI functions for this conversation.

Please see our mails from last week with subject 
"System.Data.OracleClient" for this matter.

Joerg.
