Hi all,

i am upgrading my database from 8th version to 9th version.
i am calling one package from D2K form.

its giving the following error

ORA-6502 pl/sql numeric or value error
and the line number where i am getting this error in package.

i am using one local variable in that line.

You are using Byte semantics for the NVARCHAR2 length? And are you using a multibyte character set?

If the answer to both questions is yes, that's your problem. Increase the size of the variable or shorten the value.

No way around it. A let's say you have a character set that uses 2 bytes per character and you use Byte semantics, you can only store 500/2 bytes per character = 250 characters in your variable.
