Interesting! Mark is replying to a post that I never received! :(


in theory that makes sense but dumping out the values passed into bind doesn't show any out of the ordinary characters. when we substitute the binds for literals with literal_binds, those literals all look like standard ascii values.
I imagine that Oracle knows the CSID of your binds - after all, it prints the CSID for binds in a 10046 trace, and also, in the ORA-12704 error line(s). I rather suspect that it is simply saying "are these two data items of a compatible characterset? No? Ok, ORA-12704 and dump out the details"

HTH

Cheers,
Norm.
