Based on the description could it be that you have different character set settings on server and client. See http://docs.oracle.com/html/B13804_02/gblsupp.htm[^]

Depending on the client installation the character set is defined either in registry under Oracle or as a environment variable.

For the server side, you can check the selected character set for example from v$parameter view.

Also the Microsoft version of Oracle client is deprecated so I strongly recommend to use ODP.NET[^]
