We have some customer in America and some in Japan, running the databases in UTF8 characterset. The schema creation script for English customers looks like:

TABLE_ENGLISH
COL_1 VARCHAR2(100)
COL_2 NUMBER My question is, how will the script change (if it does) for Japanese customers. The Japanese customers enter both English and Kanji characters into the database. Do I have to increase the VARCHAR2 field 3 X ?

TABLE_JAPANESE
COL_1 VARCHAR2(300)
COL_2 NUMBER thanks for your help
