...

Alex, Oracle 8i broke DCOracle's support for LOBs; DCOracle primarily uses OCI 7 (Oracle 7) calls, and Oracle 8i enforces a restriction that OCI 8 objects cannot be used in the context of an OCI 7 statement.

You can use Oracle 8.0 for this, the restriction isn't enforced until Oracle 8.1.

Hello! thank you for your answer. but does that mean that i can only use LOBS with Oracle 8.0 ? i'm confused. i need to use LOBs. if i use oracle 8.1 can i use LOBS and if yes which Databse adapter do i need?

Ciao, Alex
