Hi Friends,

We are working on Forms9i, our database is NLS enabled (NLS_LENGTH_SEMNATICS is BYTE), so when we create a new table say

Create table emp (emp_no number,emp_name nvarchar2(30);

It is created as

SQL>desc emp

emp_no number
emp_name nvarchar2(90)

Now are trying to utilize the new feature of Data Length Semantics for emp_name field in the screen, so in the property pallate we gave the details as

Field Type : CHAR
Data Length Semantics : CHAR
Max Length : 30
Query Length : 0

At runtime, ideally it should accept 90 characters but in our case it is taking only 30.

Cud some one guide us as to where we are going wrong !!!

Thanks a lot in advance.

Rgds,

Jayasree.

No idea, but I suggest you try playing with different data types in your Form.
