Why involve DataStage if it's Oracle to Oracle? It would be faster to do it within Oracle.

I am developing a datastage job where i had source table
1 column is defined as Long and i had to populate that column in another oracle database env. This job should run everyday. I wanted to know what is the max can i get the string from oracle database using datastage.

Source is transactional db and populating in Datamart.

Thanks

What datatype did you choose? What error did you get? You're going to have problems handling it but *may* be able to get it to work.
