We have a data element using CLOB stored in Oracle database table and we need to get the entire contents from it and show the data into a column of the report, because neither FOCUS data source nor XFOCUS data source can hold the full text for the CLOB.

Any suggestions?

Thanks and regards,

The Adapter Administration for UNIX, Windows, OpenVMS, i5/OS, and z/OS, Version 7 Release 6.4 specifies that, for Oracle CLOB field, the data type usage is TX50 and actual is TX - and that the "Server supports CLOB through the OCI interface, with ora_oci=y set in edaserve.cfg". It appears a configuration change is required. I cannot find the 7.1.* version of the document, but if you have a copy, look at the "Using the Adapter for Oracle" section.
