Hi friends,

I have a problem.
I cannot insert values into a long column using

Insert into table1(field list) select field list from table2.

Both table1 and table2 contain one column of long datatype.
When I run the query I get error 'Illegal use of long datatype".

Any suggestions?

Hi,
You cannot use the insert into...select from syntax with LONG datatypes.A LONG value can
only be used in a SELECT clause.
