Hello,

I want to insert a string exactly 2000 chars long by host variable into a
VARCHAR2(2000) column from a Pro*C program. The last 20-30 characters get
garbled from unknown reason. (We can call it the "C2K-problem" :-) The same
program works fine with strings 1950-1970 chars long. Tried with VARCHAR
xyz[2000] and char xyz[2000+1] as well. Precompiler: Pro*C for WinNT,
Version 8.0.5, Server: 7.3.2 RDBMS running on AIX.

Any help would be welcome.
