Hello Everyone,

I am attempting to check if a user account exists in my table already when a user submits his/her registration number and surname. Here's my code:

SELECT COUNT(reg_numb)
INTO v_count
FROM GEN_STUDENTS
WHERE reg_numb = :my_block.reg_numb
ND surname = :my_block.surname;

IF v_count > 0 THEN
v_alert := ('already_registered_alert');
GO_FORM('form_name');
END IF;

On execution, I recieve this error - ORA-06502:
PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small

I have confirmed that my table column sizes are the same as the block's column sizes and v_count has been declared as a number. It should return one row. This code is run from a WBP trigger.

Thanks for any suggestions.
Rose
