CLOB data is getting truncated on SELECT

When I am SELECT'ing a CLOB column from command prompt, the output is
getting truncated after a certail limit (8 K ??)
How do I get the full data out of a CLOB column? Are there any string
manipuration functions for CLOB fields to read it in multiple chunks ?

Thanks in advance.

IIRC, the DB2 CLP truncates any output >8k (presumably because most of
the time you don't want tons of CLOB stuff spilling all over the
console and filling up your scroll-back buffer :-). Not sure if there's
an option to override this (I've never seen one personally), but you
could always bash together a little script (Python, Perl, whatever
language you prefer) to extract the full value.

For reading "chunks" from a CLOB, have you tried SUBSTR?
Cheers,

Dave.

It is truncating one of the strings, the book tile string, so that if there are three words in it, only the first is getting submitted to the table. I have a feeling that it is because I have numbered the fields that are being submitted to the processing page,...

Hi, I am listening to a port for data but I am not able to recieve whole data, I only get truncated data.
