Deprecated? Already? That sure didn't last long. As far as what data types, I think it is whatever you can grab with a select statement. If you have long datatype, you need to do a set long 12345 (or whatever)
other stuff to set are set arraysize 100 (or whatever) set copycommit 1000 (or whatever) I like the command. It seems to do a decent job of hauling over sizable chunks of data. > -----Original Message----- > From: Pete Finnigan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, September 16, 2003 11:45 AM > To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L > Subject: Re: Connect to a remote database without a link > > > Hi Stephen, > > The COPY command is a SQL*Plus command and allows SQL*Plus to act as a > "pipe" for want of a better description between two databases to copy > data.
