When I read my post,
Realized Ioften use the term Blob where I should use Lob or Clob.
Thank you for the concise and accurate answer.
More information about LONG's or LOB's
Murilo Ferrari, September 07, 2007 - 7:19 pm UTC
Tom,
Could be more especific about why I have to use LOB instead of LONG or LONG RAW?
Could you list here the best and the worst of them?
Thanks.

because lobs are infinitely MORE FUNCTIONAL.
you can query them and use functions on them
you can insert as select them
you can do things with them over dblinks
and so on.
just don't use long and long raw, they are so hard to work with
