Maybe you can do it from within PL/SQL -- the maximum for a string literal
in PL/SQL is 32K.
The only alternative that I know of is to use ProC or another external
program. Anyone else know?

Hello Gurus
This is my Oracle prblem.
there's a column with Long Datatype in a table in Oracle 8 i and I am
inserting data into this table.
insert into Tname (longcol) values('aklajkhsajdsaj')
The Long column is only allowing me to enter a max of 4000 characters as teh
value. The minute the no of characters becomes > 4000, I get an error saying
ORA - 01704: String Literal too Long
I have to insert data into this freaking column, and its definetely gonna
be > 4000 characters. help me
