First thanks for all of you who replyed to my mail.  

Our NLS parameters are the same in both 9i (9.2.0.6) and 10g. As I replyed to Tom's mail, the data in 9i and 10g are the exactly same.

The problem isn't with 10g, it is with your NLS parameters and/or the data. The error comes from the values in the column not from your 88. The 88 converts fine to a number, but the values in your column do not. Any non-numeric values in the column will cause this.
