Hello,

I am running Oracle Server 7.1.5.2.3 and am investigating the possibility of storing images (TIF files) in our database, either as a LONG RAW datatype, or using a pointer within a table to a file in the OS (OpenVMS AXP 6.2).

Oracle Support inform me it can't be done, and the documentation says nothing, but I'm not so sure...

I would appreciate any advice.
