If you know what type of data are you storing in the lob column, you can use dmbs_lob package in order to insert and retrive data from the original format into de lob format. We are use this techique succesfully to insert/select text into/from a clob column. Peter Sabaini escribió:

hi all,

i have this shiny brand new oracle 8i server and now read (on the mailinglist) that there's no lob support for oracle 8i in dcoracle 1.3.2, and indeed it does not appear to work.

is that true? i need lob support! is there any workaround? through stored procedures maybe?

thanks a lot!

peter.
