Converting a Long datatype to Varchar2

I am trying to do an Insert-Select sql statement with one of the fields
being a Long datatype.  I know that this will give me an "Illegal use
of Long Datatype" error.  Is there any other way of doing the same
thing without actually going through a cursor and looping through the
recordset?



Appreciate the help and thanks in advance,
Ed Jao
