Hi all,

When I generate table scripts with TOAD, the script declares the varchar2 column size with: varchar2(10 byte) instead of varchar2(10). The latter is what I'm used to.

Also this script won't run on every (version of the?) database.

Can someone tell me the difference between the 2?

thanks
