Point taken...:) The PeopleSoft record is CUST_CONVER and it as a field called descrlong that is defined as a long in PS. We have changed the datatype on the database side to a CLOB instead of the long. When PS is running the query below it returns the following error: SQL error. Stmt #: 554 Error Position: 0 Return: 0 - We can run the query against Oracle without issues. The query is: SELECT SETID, CUST_ID, CONVER_DT, TO_CHAR(CONVER_DT,'YYYY-MM-DD'), CONVER_SEQ_NUM, CNTCT_SEQ_NUM, TO_CHAR(REVIEW_NEXT_DT,'YYYY-MM-DD'), LETTER_CD, DUN_LETTER_COMP, FOLLOW_UP_ACTION, FOLLOW_UP_COMP, SUP_REVIEW, SUP_STATUS, DESCR, DESCRLONG, KEYWORD1, KEYWORD2, KEYWORD3, OPRID, TO_CHAR(PROMISE_DT,'YYYY-MM-DD'), PROMISE_AMT, PROMISE_CONFIDENCE, REVIEW_OPRID, REVIEW_COMP, FOLLOW_UP_OPRID FROM PS_CUST_CONVER WHERE SETID=:1 AND CUST_ID=:2 ORDER BY SETID, CUST_ID, CONVER_DT DESC, CONVER_SEQ_NUM DESC Hope this sheds a little more light on my problem.
