Hello,
I want to know, how to insert a picture into a DB2 Table.
My table structure will be like this
| Code: |
ID VARCHAR(10),
NAME VARCHAR(10),
Description VARCHAR(255),
IMAGE CLOB(2 M) |
The picture, that i want to insert is in desktop - currently.
1. Say i will upload the picture into mainframe in binary format.
Question: Uploading the picture in binary format is correct or wrong ?
2. HOW to INSERT the picture into the DB2 TABLE ?
I am clueless about this..........
I refered to this post, But I'm not using any programs for insertion. Just plain INSERT STATEMENT.

Thank You,

I was trying to send pictures via SMTP and came across this scenario.
Transferring to mainframes using binary format is the correct way.
If you want to verify, then u can re-tranfer the picture back from mainframes to PC and open the file. It would be proper.
It once tried with PS file with recfm = fb and rec length = 80 and it worked fine.  |
