	Hi, 
	 
	O/S is HP-UX
	 
	 
	1)select * from nls_database_parameters; 
	NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS CHAR 
	 
	2)select * from V$nls_parameters; 
	NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS BYTE 
	 
	3)In init.ora it is 
	nls_length_semantics = BYTE 
	 
	 
	ours is 10.2.0.2 
	 
	 
	why is this difference? 
	 
	 
	Regards, 
	Edwin.K
