Use PL/SQL. Read the long into a varchar2 and then perform a to_date on
the varchar2 variable into a date variable. You can put this into a
user function if desired.

Subject: Convert Long to Date
Oracle stores the High Value of a Partition in a Long column. I
swear I've searched the friendly web, and I just can't figure out how to
get this long column converted back to a date or char I can take a char
to a date.
If it exists on the web, please tell me. I don't know why this
is so hard to find.
