Oracle 7: Longer fields?

A question on changes from Oracle V6 to V7:

Does Oracle V7 allow multiple fields in a table to be longer than 255 characters? That's one of the major limitations we're finding in designing a database under V6. We need to have multiple fields that contain free-form text which could be on the order of 20-30K. I know that Oracle V6 only allows ONE field per table to be declared LONG, and that doesn't help.

Any responses would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks in advance,
