I hope the question is pertaining to using long column in where clause.
Try this
---------------------------------------------------------
declare
cursor c0 is
select view_name,text
from user_views;
Cview_name varchar2(30);
Ltext long;
begin
open c0;
loop
fetch c0 into Cview_name,Ltext;
exit when c0%notfound;
if Ltext like '%/*%' then
dbms_output.put_line('View Name : '||Cview_name);
end if;
end loop;
close c0;
end;
/
-----------------------------------------------------------------
U can use this in SQL, One way is PL/SQL.
This PL/SQL can be used to insert all such view names into a temp table
then u can display text for these views using a select command.
Don't forget to set the size of long using
set long 1000
I hope this answers ur question.

How do I get past the inconsistent datatypes error on the following?
select *
from dba_views
where owner = 'SA'
and text like '%/*%';
We have some views that were migrated from 7.3.4 to 8.0.5 and
we suspect
that we
lost our hints in the migration and upgrade. I want to find which views
had hints in the old system so that I can bring them forward.
