ODP.NET and LONG RAW

> Help!
>
> I am having trouble loading a JPEG image into Oracle via ODP.NET. I am
> getting the ORA-00932: Inconsistent datatypes error message when
> attempting to load the image into a LONG RAW column.
>
> If this wan't an Oracle Apps table, I would use a BLOB column instead of a
> LONG RAW, but my hands are tied.

> I have enclosed the code I am using to attempt to load the image. I know
> its probably something stupid, but I just can't see it in the pre-long
> weekend fog.
