    You might want to involve your DBA on the project.

    Abhishek, I work frequently with non-English data, so I must insist in the answer : see, non-ocidental languages (as Japanese) have more characters than the "space" present in an English-only database, your program can´t do NONE about this, is a PHYSICAL thing... So, the DBA ** must ** recreate/convert this database, allowing more "space" for the extra characters required, if you are the programmer only you don´t have A THING to do about it...

    1) Normal language (english) makes me a bit angry man. What's wrong with the other languages? Moreover Oracle supports most of them for ages
    2) Post here
    select * from nls_database_parameters where parameterlike '%CHARACTERSET%'
