Monk Stuff
It saddened me to see whilst upvoting talexb's reply; it had been down-voted.
The contents of a scratchpad are temporary and in adding the notes here,
it's easier to provide a permanent record of the question in one location,
for the benefit of other querants and those providing answers.
Oracle Stuff
It's not clear what the field types contain.
Perhaps the easiest solution would be to write a PL/SQL function to decode the troublesome fields.
AFAIK there isn't such a thing as a nested table structure in Oracle or any other relational databases?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
