I need to trim a few characters from the beginning of a clob field. In MSSQL, I can do this by replacing these characters with an empty string (''). However, Oracle's DBMS_LOB.update function insists that the raw data used to replace characters be the same length as the character string being replaced.

Is there a way to alter the clob locater so that it points to different offset, and thereby it effectively trims off these unwanted characters?

I really don't know the answer to your question. I just wanted to say hello and that THE TRIPPERS ROCK!
