How to convert UTF-8 character to ISO8859-1 character

[moonhkt]

Hi All
How to convert UTF-8 character to ISO8859-1 character by windows xp
by background process ?

I have a text file which is UTF-8 format, but my database can not
support UTF-8, We need to convert to ISO8859-1 format by IE or UTF-8
editor . So that we can import/export those UTF-8 file.
Any program can convert in background UTF8 to ISO8859-1 ?
