Table Issues - A table may only have one LONG column

691624Mar 24 2009 — edited Mar 29 2009
Hey everyone,

I'm in the process of migrating a database into my new Oracle XE system. I'm getting errors stating that only one LONG column can be in a table.

The columns in the table are both basically just text boxes where users type in a couple of pages of data. Is it possible to use a different type for these columns?

During my reading, I was able to learn about LOBs, but I'm not sure if I should use these? They seem to be HUGE, when I only need at most 30kb.

Thanks
