title: ora-01406 Error when fetching values using OCI
body: <p>This occurs when fetching values which have a max length of 50, to a buffer which could only hold 30 chars.</p>
  
  <p>I've already looked up the error and found a possible solution, which is to expand the size of the buffer which the value is bound to.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is, this occurs only in some of our systems and not in others. Does the Oracle version have anything to do with this? If so, what is the version in which this error has been changed?</p>
  
  <p>The Oracle versions we use are 10.2.0.1 and 10.2.0.3</p>
