Hi,

I'm trying to do a select * from an oracle table that has a clob field in it.

SET SQLENGINE=SQLORA
SQL SET SERVER &MYSERV
SQL SELECT * FROM PAL.SD;
TABLE
ON TABLE HOLD AS SD_HOLD
END
However, I receive this error...

(FOC1400) SQLCODE IS -1 (HEX: FFFFFFFF)
(FOC1665) UNSUPPORTED DATA TYPE IN ORACLE INTERFACE
L (FOC1405) SQL PREPARE ERROR.

The master file looks like this for that field...
FIELD=INVENTION_DESCRIPTION ,INVENTION_DESCRIPTION,
TX50 ,TX ,MISSING=OFF,$

I looked at the master file for this table and noticed that the format was different. I tried changing the .mas to make this field a clob but that didn't seem to work. I received the same error. Does anyone know what I need to do to get my select * to work with a clob field?

Thanks...

Hope this helps.

Thanks Kerry,

I had to add ora_oci=y to the edaserve.cfg and restart the server.
