Please ignore to use Long datatype,Instead you can use CLOB Datatype.You can also assign values to long datatype as i have used in oracle 8i,but you need to create xml and save into particular unix location and then call that file using sqlldr,then you will able to load that .xml file into particular long datatype column.But i think u can't assign directly to long datatype as it is depricated before 8i as well.
Dear mumbai,
What are you talking about?
