I believe you can have 1000 clob columns per table in 10g .. So just think about the _logical_ row length. http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13789_01/server.101/b10755/limi ts001.htm (see CLOB section and footnote). 8:) Ps: note I wrote logical row length ... Not physical as you need.

I thought there was an explicit =3D limit for the row length in bytes in Oracle. But it looks like the only =3D limit is roughly the size for the biggest (in bytes) data type =3D multiplied by the maximum number of columns per table plus some =3D overhead. I wasn't able to find additional information on that topic.
