Re: Beyond the 1600 columns limit on windows

I'm doing a PhD in data mining and I need more than 1600 columns. I got an
error message saying that I can not use more than 1600 columns.
It is happening because I have to change categorical values to binary
creating new columns. Do you know if oracle can handle it?
