Hi,

A simple sql statement will do, how do i copy a field of remarks varchar2(1024) to another field in another table declared as remarks varchar2(255)?

insert into dest ( select * from source);
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01401: inserted value too large for column

what is the command to display the max length remarks, and what is the command to trim the data?

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Ooiewe
