Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Copying some rows from a table having a long datatype column.
Also if you need selected row you can create a view based on required select statement and use this view in the copy command - did not try this myself but should work.

Use the COPY command. It will allow you to insert a long from another table.
