Hi Rajasekaran,

Where are you from?

You can update the long column values by the following statement..

If you have a table A and only one column say LON and its type is LONG, then Try this..

First do this..

SELECT ROWID,LON FROM A;

You can see the values now.

Then you can update the particular record now..

Try this..

UPDATE A SET LON='some_value' WHERE ROWID='The_corresponding_rowid';

If you have more than one column for example if you have a column A along with LON then try this..

UPDATE A SET LON='some_value' WHERE A=value;

You can not update a LONG data type column by cheking the field itself..

Thanks..

Ramu..
