RE: Automanagement of extent sizing

!! Please do not post Off Topic to this List !!

You cannot use the alter table move on a table with LONG columns. *
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00997: illegal use of LONG datatype

I would normally use export/ import

I must be spacing out here, I found where I got the idea that you can not use alter tablespace move with a long,

"The drawback to using this
method is the you cannot move a table with a LONG or LONG RAW. You must exp

that table and imp it into a table."

But I can't find it in the docs and don't have access to 8i a the moment to test. I swear I saw it in the docs too. Anyone back me up on this? - E
