(OP)
Hi,
I'm looking for a type of solder paste which is tested and found pass under 120 deg C operating condition for long hours. Can any one shed some light here?

I would not want to use it in a structural application to hold any weight, as it will creep more at elevated temperatures. But for electronics, 60-40 has been used in military systems with storage requirements to 120C since Hector was a pup.

You might consider 63-37 tin lead solder, as it is a true eutectic solder mix, and elevated temperatures will not cause any of the metal to precipatate out (which might cause a cold solder joint over time).
But like someone said, talk to a solder company!
