Re:Manipulating Long Raw in Pl/Sql

Hi ,



    A simple long-type manipulation question...



    Since the max. length of a local variable (PL/SQL) of type long is
32767, how does one manipulate data from Long columns, having size
larger than that?



    Also, normal string functions like length or substr, do not work
with long types. So how does one perform those on Long datatypes?



Can anyone please help?



Thanks.
