long fields in oracle 7.3.2

I'm using DBI 1.07 to write a very long string to a LONG field in Oracle 7.3.2

However, I keep getting the following error:

        ORA-01704: string literal too long

The oracle documentation says a string literal can't be more than 2000 characters. If that's true, how do you get longer strings into LONG fields?

Thanks in advance,
