>>The database character set is UTF8 but the table itself does not contain any multibyte data.




So, what?



If your view must hold 20 characters (substr(column_name, 1, 20)), it
will need up to 3 bytes x each in UTF8. (In AL32UTF8 it will need up to
4 bytes x each.)



It doesn't matter what the table *contains*. It's about the view
structure.



Cheers.



Carlos.
