Re: ORA-4052 querying in PLSQL across a DB-Link from 9.2.0.1 to

Hi!

Try to set event 10499 at level 1 in your remote server. Or upgrade the client to at least 9.2.0.3.
You get more information from metalink when searching for this event in metalink, it's about float scale representation change in 10i (which was backported to 9.2.0.3).
