Answer 1

One way is :
SQL> create table tbl1 (id number, txt long raw);
Table created.
SQL> create table tbl2 (id number, txt long raw);
Table created.
SQL> insert into tbl1 values (1,rawtohex('aeklru'));
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> select * from tbl1;
        ID T
         1 6
SQL> insert into tbl2 select * from tbl1;
insert into tbl2 select * from tbl1
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00997: illegal use of LONG datatype
SQL> begin
  2  for i in (select * from tbl1) loop insert into tbl2 values (i.id,i.txt); end loop;
  3  end;
  4  /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> select * from tbl2;
        ID T
         1 6
