Bytes per Character

Allow the system to automatically detect the number of bytes per character for the connection or select from the list of available numbers.

The default preference is set in View | Preferences | General | Session. If you receive ORA-01026 errors (or similar) when working with the database, we recommend setting this preference to the minimum possible value (2, 3 or 4) that eliminates the errors.

Connect As

Your Username must first be granted these privileges. For information about system privileges, see the Oracle Database Administrator’s guide.
