Subject: Insert > 8000 Byte into LONG column
Hi dear list members,
we run a database 8.1.6.2
I've run into a problem. I've got a table that
contains a LONG column (I know, I know).
I have to insert a string into it that has a length > 8500 Byte.
Whenever I issue the insert statement SQL/PLUS throws
the error 'ORA-01704: string literal too long'.
Does anyone have an idea how I can get the data into the table?
Any help (except: change the datatype ;-)) is appreciated.
Greetings,
Guido
