Hi,
In Discoverer i have selected a column with the values : A, B-, B, B+ and C. I have registered this coumn and made an item class from this column. So far so good. When I use an existing report in Oracle Discoverer User Edition and drill to this column something goes wrong. Discoverer shows only the values A, B and C. The minus and plus characters have disappeared. I tried to make a calculation column to bypass this problem but decoding the value to ASCII values does not work.
Any ideas are highly appreciated.

What version are you working on? (meanwhile, I'll try to reproduce this in 10.1).
Result while trying to reproduce:
create table T3
(
ID NUMBER not null,
COL1 VARCHAR2(3),
DRILL VARCHAR2(3)
)
Inserted values into T3:
1 A A
2 B- B
3 B B
4 B+ B
5 C C
Created BA in Discoverer, created LOV item class on COL1, created hierarchy on DRILL and COL1. Created workbook selecting DRILL, drilled down to COL1 -> values show properly (including B+ and B-).
What is different in your situation?

Thanks four your reply,
Differet is than in our version of Discover the - and + are not visable. Everything else is the same. We use Discoverer User Edition version 4.1.37. Any ideas ?
Thanks a lot,

4.1.37 has been desupported quite a while ago now. If an upgrade to 10g is not negotiable, I would suggest at least you install the patch to 4.1.48 (still available on Metalink).
I don't have acces to these old versions anymore, so I'm afraid I can't help you any further. Sorry.
