| CAUSE | An error was encountered while moving a character string from a source to a destination. This error occurs if, for example, an attempt is made to move a a character string of 10 characters into a 1 character buffer. The cause of this error may not always be obvious. For example, the following will result in this error: a varchar2(1); b number; b : = 10; a : = b; An error results because an implicit conversion causes the number 10 to become the character string 10, which does not fit in the character buffer of 1 allocated for the variable a. |
