you give no details but i guess you saved your data using some codepage encoding
& now that cf supports unicode it's all garbage.

no need to re-type everything, if you're sure cf4 outputs the data correctly,
the cheapest way is to create a page on the cf4 server that simply dumps out the
data in a format that your db can parse. then either copy that to a text file &
use your db tools to import it as unicode or make a cfhttp call from your cfmx
server to the cf4 server & parse & insert the data into your db using cfmx.

Java has robust conversion ability. I you can write code in java then
that would work. Also, I need some nana.
