problem in truncate/drop partitions in a table having nested table columns.

569820Sep 7 2012 — edited Sep 7 2012
Hi,

I have a table that has 2 columns of type nested table. Now in the purge process, when I try to truncate or drop a partition from this table, I get error that I can't do this (because table has nested tables). Can anybody help me telling how I will be able to truncate/drop partition from this table? IF I change column types from nested table to varray type, will it help?

Also, is there any short method of moving existing data from a nested table column to a varray column (having same fields as nested table)?

Thanks in advance.
