| Where does your 32787 come from - typo, I presume?

|




Apparently a typo, but not 32768 either...



PL/SQL User's Guide, Fundamentals chapter:



You use the VARCHAR2 datatype to store variable-length character data. How
the


data is represented internally depends on the database character set. The
VARCHAR2



datatype takes a required parameter that specifies a maximum size up to
32767


bytes.
