we have a oracle dumped database file ***.dmp that is created under a certin character set on the registery editor, and now we need to run this database under another type of charater set like others on the same server, when we do so, the stored data become rapish, so is there any soulution for that.

You may want to read the oracle docs, but if you restore the *.dmp then export it with a diff character set (you CANNOT cross between single and multi bit), then import it this should give the results you seek.

I can't imagine how you dumped an Oracle database using a registry. In any case, you want to check the Oracle manuals on NLS - National Language Support.
