I need a way to read a file with lines larger the 32000. Text_io has a procedure (putf) that allows writing of files in chunks. I need a client side function that can read a file in chunks from save back to a BLOB in the DB. text_io.get_line will not work as some linesizes are greater then 32000 characters. Are there are windows DLL I can use though ora_ffi ???

Can I do anything else to read a file piece wise and then insert it into the DB. I want to do this on the client, not the server so I don't want to use dbms_blob.loadfromfile!!!

Thank

Chris.
