Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Two LONG RAW fields in one table?
oracle 8 has CLOB, BLOB, BFILE types, clob = character large object kinda like long, blob = binary large object kinda like raw, bfile new type which is a pointer to the object stored at the operating system filesystem(be it unix/nt, etc). you can have multiple clob, blob at the table level, oracle 8 also does NOT store the info in the table but gives you the capability to store the LOB in some other tablespace.
