Binay,

Try typing the command 'CLEAR COLUMNS' before doing the select.

It may be something in login.sql or glogin.sql that is creating the difference.

Hello DBA-Gurus,

Executing the same query on 2 databases, but getting different output- the column title. In all the databases its limited to the value of the row except
in one database we've. All the databases are of 8.1.7.2 running on IBM/unix
server.

Database- A

select substr('LET ME BABY ONE MORE TIME',1,3) FROM dual;

SUB
---

LET Database-B

select substr('LET ME BABY ONE MORE TIME',1,3) FROM dual;

SUBSTR('LETMEBABYONEMORET

LET See the output of Database-B - that's the difference from the others.It seems
that its a database specific problem- we tried with all SQLPLUS versions, both
Unix and Windows and objerved the same.

Eager to know what makes the difference - all your comments are welcome.

Thanks

-Binay
