Hi,

I have a DB2 table with a CLOB column. the CLOB column has a CLOB locator. It will be helpful if some one can help me with a sample COBOL program with a CLOB locator.

Hello,

I read thru the information in the provided link. It was helpful. It talks about how to insert data in to a BLOB datatype. The example provided is not using a locator to access data that is stored in the table. Will be helpful if I an get an example with locator for select or insert.

Hello,

We do not use "locators" - at least as i understand your question.

Is there not a sample in the IBM material? They usually have examples with the documentation of the feature.

In COBOL CLOB data is accessed three different ways.
1) Host Variable ( example provided in this forum).
2) Using LOB Locator.
3) Using File reference.
I tried searching in the IBM Manuals but was unable to find the correct example.

Akatsukami,
The example provided helps! Thanks for sharing. The sample code provided is using C language. Would appreciate if there is an example in COBOL.
