Encoding Problems (MS SQL -> MySQL)

Hi,
I want to migrate the data (tables) of a MS SQL (Server 2000) database to MySQL (5.0.23).

For this, i`m using the "MySQL Migration Toolkit" (v. 1.1.4).
My problem is the encoding of the "special characters" like the german umlauts (e.g. ä,ü,ö).
In the target MySQl database (resp. in the the generated script file) the umlauts for "Gemeindebhörden" are displayed as "Gemeindebeh�rden".

The collation of the MS SQL database is Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS.
In step 3 of the migration (Object Mapping), i tried several charset/collation-settings (e.g. latin1/latin1_german1_ci, latin1/latin1_swedish_ci, utf8/utf8_general_ci).

Does anybody have an idea how to migrate my data with the correct encoding settings ?
Thanks in advance!

P.
