Character Sets in SQL Server 6.5

I am transferring tables between two SQL Server 6.5 databases. Both are sitting on Win NT machines. The problem is that there are some higher ASCII characters in the data set. While those characters are stored properly in the origin DB, when they come over to the destination DB, they are "munged" into something else.

Both SQL Servers are using the standard ASCII ISO 8859 character set according to sp_sorthelp.

Has anyone run into this before? Any ideas on how to make the two DB's communicate in the same language? TIA.
