RE: LONG to char
Try use PL/SQL Block with DBMS_OUTPUT: SET SERVEROUTPUT ON SIZE 10 DECLARE CURSOR c_cursor IS SELECT long_type_column, varchar2_type_column FROM tab1; BEGIN FOR c_row IN c_cursor LOOP DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('INSERT INTO TAB2 VALUES (''' || c_row.long_type_column || ''', ''' || c_row.varchar2_type_column || ''');'); END LOOP; END; / Just curious, cannot you use EXP/IMP utilities or COPY command for what you are trying to accomplish?

RE: LONG to char
I am doing this now. In a very lame and inneffecient way. I wrote a cursor and am taking my LOB into a really long VARCHAR2(1) or whatever variable then substringing it out into several smaller VARCHAR2(4000) fields.
