How about using CAST or TO_STRING to make the value a varchar(15). Did you say you made a local DB view that uses the dbLink and a Remedy view form on that?

It is coming from an external source (actually a MySQL database) which is then imported into an Oracle database for processing by a different project. I am then trying to access the same data within Remedy for a specific Remedy application. Perhaps if I copy the original field, which is defined as number(38) to a character field of 15 characters then that might work? Thanks.
