Help. I am having a tough time with the following requirements:
I need to concatenate a number of VARCHAR2 fields on to the end of a LONG data structure. Now this seems simple enough but I get the incompatible data types error.
I realize that there are some very distinct difference between LONG and VARCHAR2 data structures but I was wondering if there is any way of forcing Oracle to overlook the data type differences (ie make the LONG data type act as a VARCHAR2 for concatenation purposes only)
Thanks in advance!
BTW please E-mail response as I do not have a news feed at work currently.
