accessing blob fileds from oracle

Chenna Sudarsan

Hello,
I am connecting to Oracle9.2 database from VB6.0 using MSDAORA provider. I
am using ADO2.5.
When I try to access a blob column of oracle I am getting the below
mentioned error.

--------------------
Run-time error '-2147467259 (80004005)':

Data type is not supported.
----------------------

When I try to connect using OracleOLEDB.Ora cle provider I am able access the
blob column and get the image stored in the column.
I can not use this provider as all my clients will not contain this
provider. I need to use MSDAORA provider only.

Could any tell me what could the problem?

regards,
Chenna

Yes, the Microsoft ODBC driver and OLEDB provider do not support a BLOB data type:

Bulk Insert of Blob data type in Oracle

by: Niraj | last post by:

Hi, I am trying to do bulk insert of binary data (array of bytes) in an Oracle table. The data type of the table is BLOB. I am using Oracle Objects for OLE (OO4O) in C++. The binary data that I have to insert is in the form of byte array. My problem is that the bulk inserts happen only as long as the length of array is less than 4K. Any data more than 4K gets truncated. Is it possible to do bulk inserts in a BLOB field with data more...
