Hi,
Simple question, (if you know the answer!) I have written a package that has three procedures in it. I send a parameter to one of the procedures, and I would like to know if there is some sort of size limit as to what I can send to it? The parameter is a varchar2 of size upto 5000 characters. I am using oracle 8.1.7
TIA
Anthony

The Maximum size of a VARCHAR2 is 32767 bytes (in most cases, this is the same as 32767 characters in PL/SQL.
The maximum width of a VARCHAR2 database column is 4000 bytes. Therefore, you cannot insert VARCHAR2 values longer than 4000 bytes into a VARCHAR2 column.
