I used them all over on a large PHP3 (and later PHP4) site for several years
until we migrated to PostgreSQL in January, with no problems.
What's the correct alternative...CLOB's?

do not use long as long are not fully supported in oracle
(and never were).

In Oracle, 'long' is a variable-length character data column up to 2GB in
size. Roughly equivalent to 'text' in mysql, I think. You can also use
'blob', 'clob' and/or 'nclob' instead, but I think access to those types is
less straightforward than the 'long' type.

Thanks for the response. I'm kind of confused though. You can use a 'long'
type for a string of characters greater than 4k?
Thanks,
Mike
