Message-Id: <10576.113480@fatcity.com> From: Christine Turner Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2000 07:08:09 -0000 Subject: ORA-01801 You know I just love the error message book, it is so helpful! NOT! Anyways, hello all, I'm running into a problem when I do a SELECT * FROM TABLE. I'm receiving a ORA-01801, data format is too long for internal buffer. According to the messages and code book the action I am supposed to take is to remove long literals from the date format string. WHAT??? All this from a select *???? Any comments appreciated. Please help!!! Thanks In Advance!
