Edwards OneWorld have over 200 columns, VARCHAR is not used, only NUMBER and CHAR. Makes for some wide tables. This product was originally some type of flat file database. Ethan -----Original Message----- Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 1:28 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L I think the column limit is now closer to 1000, but like you, I can't imagine willingly designing a table with a column count exceeding 2 digits. More than 15 or 20 and I start to question the design.
