Character set/Collation problem in MySQL 4.1

[Mariela Mayorga]

Hi,
I'm having problems with character sets and collations in MySQL 4.1.
The problem is that when I execute the LOAD DATA INFILE command or when I export a table content to a CSV file, the characters like 'á', 'é', 'í', 'ó', 'ú', 'ñ'... are changed to things like 'ñ', 'ó',...
The charset variables values I have are:
character_set_client utf8
character_set_connection latin1
character_set_database utf8
character_set_results utf8
character_set_server latin1
character_set_system utf8

collation_connection latin1_spanish_ci
collation_database utf8_spanish_ci
collation_server latin1_swedish_ci

I´ll appreciate any help!!!
