Column width increase in Oracle

User_19BPUJun 14 2017 — edited Jun 14 2017

Hi,

I want to increase the column width of a particular column from varchar2(250) to varchar2(350), whether we can directly go and make this change in Production without worrying about any data loss? I hope this wont have any impact on the existing data in the table?

alter table CUST_ADDRESS modify address varchar2(350);

Whether the above is the right way of doing it in Oracle 12c?

Thanks
