Hi all!
I need to upgrade the database from 8i to 9i. Here I have prepared the scripts for objects that are exists in 8i. I can create the database by running all those scripts in Oracle 9i. But here I want know the character set encoding.
In 8i I am using WEISO5901 Character set and i want my database must support multibyte characters in 9i. do i need to change the scripts( i mean, datalength ex: varchar2(10) to varchar2(30)) as the multibyte character set encoidng occupies 3 times of that original one.
Thanks in advance,
Anu

I've been always using WE8ISO59P1, but, as far as i know, i believe that charset has nothing to do with datalenght. I believe that you only need to create your DB with the charset you need.
That's it.
Best luck
