Q: How to insert data in a LONG RAW column?

Hi,

I've encountered a problem with the LONG RAW data type. When I want insert data into a LONG RAW column with an SQL statement like
"insert into table values (1,1,'FFAACF...')" I get an error that the string literal is too long. The oracle documentations says only that the

value for a LONG RAW has to be hex coded. The error says that a string literal has a limited size up to 2000 character. So, how can I insert data without this restriction in a field that can hold
up to 2 MB?

I'm developing under Solaris 2.6, Oracle 8.05 and IBM Visualage for Smalltalk.

Thanks in advance.
