Hi,
we have problem while using the UTL_FILE oracle package.
our program uses UTL_FILE to write records from the table.
One column in the table can have max of 2700 characters.
Sometimes this program is failing.
we beleive that the problem is with the size of the record
which is 2761 bytes maximum.
There must be some way that we can overcome this problem.
Can any one help us in solving this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,
i did not come accross this kind of instance (size kinda) but for this the workaround will be use substr() and get the max data from it..Still i feel 2700 is not a problem... Please let me know if u get any error in specific.

You are sure that it is 2761 bytes not 2761 characters?
length() will return characters, lengthb() returns bytes.
