Priya,
Varchar2 will hold characters more than 450 characters.
i.e., upto 4000.
Using varchar2 is good enough for storing 450 characters.

Hi,
Data that you are storing in database also depents on the characterset that you are using.
check out which character set and which language you are using.
Any way you can increase the size by
Alter table <TNAME> modify <Col.Name> varchar2(1000);
but you cannot decrease it unless you do not have any rows in the table
bye
