I have seen forms do this all the time, i.e. without actually issuing the 'alter session ...' command, you can see they being done. I think it must be something to do with sqlnet.

Have you tried it yet?

I suppose that would work if an alter session is used but what if the client is simply set up to use a different character set, for example if NLS_LANG is set to something other than the database character set.

export NLS_LANG=Blah
sqlplus foo/bar

Now what character set is being used? I presume "Blah".

      SELECT SUBSTR(sql_text, 1, 2000)
        FROM sys.V_$OPEN_CURSOR
       WHERE UPPER (sql_text) LIKE 'ALTER SESSION%'

with appropriate sid.
