| I understand what you guide. But my problem that I have an application and I must provide quota for each user in my application. User there is not database user, I store them in a table. Therefore I have to calculate size of each record when insert/update/delete.Any ideal will be greatly appreciated!Thanks,Hieu Phuong |

| It would be a lot easier for you to limit the number of ROWS the user can store, instead of trying to determine the actual size of each row. You can also use the full rowsize and divide that into the number of bytes the user is supposed to have.BTW, are you allowing the users to store files inside the database itself? If you are, then forget it. You'll go crazy trying to determine how much space they're using. You can more easily and flexibly store files on the hard drive and take advantage of the file system's ability to set quotas. |
