Harsha,

You may even have to drop and reacreate the sequence number (if it is at it's max too). Recreate it with the same name and start at its current value and increment by 1.

What is running on top of the tables? You said no change or minor change to the software... Will making the column bigger cause you to have to make front end changes, as well? The table might be the easy part.

Hi Harsha,

You can modify column length as done in second step below:

SYSTEM_at_OHIL> create table test121 (col1 number (5)) tablespace users ;

Table created.

SYSTEM_at_OHIL>alter table test121 modify col1 number(8) ;

Table altered.

SYSTEM_at_OHIL>drop table test121 ;

Table dropped.

Cheers,
Rajesh
