Unfortunately this does not work as well.  It either gives the same message,
or the "ORA-01002: fetch out of sequence".  Here is the experiment (this
table does not have a LONG field, but just shows that the join does not
work):

SQL> drop table test1;
SQL> drop table test2;
SQL> drop table test3;
SQL> create table test1(col1 number, col2 number, col3 number);
SQL> insert into test1 values(1,201,301);
SQL> insert into test1 values(2,202,302);
SQL> insert into test1 values(3,203,303);
SQL> create table test2(col1 number, col4 number, col5 number);
SQL> insert into test2 values(1,401,501);
SQL> insert into test2 values(2,402,502);
SQL> insert into test2 values(3,403,503);
SQL> commit;

Commit complete.

SQL> create table test3 as
  2     select t1.col2, t1.col3, t2.col4, t2.col5
  3       from test1 t1
  4          , test2 t2
  5      where t1.col1 = t2.col1
  6        and 0=1;

Table created.

SQL> select t1.col2, t1.col3, t2.col4, t2.col5
  2    from test1 t1
  3       , test2 t2
  4   where t1.col1 = t2.col1;

       203        303        403        503

SQL> 
SQL> insert into test3
  2     select t1.col2, t1.col3, t2.col4, t2.col5
  3       from test1 t1
  4          , test2 t2
  5      where t1.col1 = t2.col1;

3 rows created.

       203        303        403        503

SQL> rollback;

Rollback complete.

SQL> select * from test3;

no rows selected

SQL> 
SQL> 
SQL> 
SQL> commit;

Commit complete.

SQL> copy from tst/tst@dvlp -

Array fetch/bind size is 15. (arraysize is 15)
Will commit when done. (copycommit is 0)
Maximum long size is 80. (long is 80)

  select t1.col2, t1.col3, t2.col4, t2.col5                from test1 t1
, test2 t2
*
Error in SELECT statement: ORA-01002: fetch out of sequence

It seems there was a bug related to this, but I am getting the same error
message when I am running on 8.1.7, where the bug should have been fixed.

Thanks.
