string literal to long

Hi!
This is my problem:
my application is connected (via odbc) with an oracle 8i database that has a table with a field of type long that shall contain up to 2^32 bytes; if I try to insert in that field a string with more than 4000 characters i receive a "String literal to long" error. Anybody can help me
Thanks
Roberto
