Thanks Alex, It worked fine. Still wondering how come that this problem is
only there in one of the 16 Oracle database instance ?

Binay,
It is a bug related to cursor_sharing=force.
Try alter session set cursor_sharing=exact.
Alex.

Hello DBA-Gurus,
Executing the same query on 2 databases, but getting different output- the
column title. In all the databases its limited to the value of the row
except
in one database we've. All the databases are of 8.1.7.2 running on IBM/unix
server.
Database- A
----------
select substr('LET ME BABY ONE MORE TIME',1,3) FROM dual;
SUB
---
LET
Database-B
----------
select substr('LET ME BABY ONE MORE TIME',1,3) FROM dual;
SUBSTR('LETMEBABYONEMORET
--------------------------------
LET
See the output of Database-B - that's the difference from the others.It
seems
that its a database specific problem- we tried with all SQLPLUS versions,
both
Unix and Windows and objerved the same.
Eager to know what makes the difference - all your comments are welcome.
Thanks
-Binay
