Hi
I have a question regarding the insertion of long raw data into a table. I have already made a serch in the forum but no success. This is the query that I am trying to run:
Insert into table1 (select * from table2 where fieldX='some value')
I am getting error: "ORA-00977 illegal use of long datatype" because one of the fields in the tables is of Long Raw type.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

i don't think the long raw can be manipulated in this fashion, in PL/SQL or SQL.
What i do is i always put data into a long raw through my applications. Off course thats what long raw is there for, showing binary contents to applications.
I am not sure, Any one who can comment otherwise?
