Hi,



I am writing a server in Java that connects to an Oracle database.  I have a
table called USERS.  A column in USERS is called ID.  ID has type
VARCHAR(10).  My problem is how do I write code that gets the size 10.
Could it be done in SQL, PL/SQL, or some method from Oracle JDBC driver?
Thanks a lot.
