Summary: Oracle BLOBs Keywords: oracle blob Message-ID: <4555@sactoh0.SAC.CA.US> Date: 30 Dec 90 23:07:23 GMT References: <19615@netcom.UUCP> Organization: Sacramento Public Access, Ca. USA Lines: 8 checked out oracle, Ingres and Informix. Chose Informix because of the BLOB impelementations (we were responsible for them getting these early). But to answer you question, YES, Oracle plans to support BLOBs. At the current time, they do support a SINGLE BLOB-type field/record. -- Bob Breedlove SYSOP: BOBsBBS (916/929-7511) Author: CONFIG.EXE, RUN.EXE, CleanUp.EXE bob@sactoh0.SAC.CA.US
