Hi Mike,



It is not true that you can always use a LOB instead of LONG (RAW). Example:
MDAC 2.5 (OLE DB) which does not know anything about LOBs but knows how to
handle LONGs.



The reason is that LONGs do not use handles.



It took us quite an effort to pass our BLOBs as a LONG RAW parameter in a
procedure. The solution was to use a global temporary table for conversion.
