Sybase text column insert

[Balaji VR]

Hi,

I have a Sybase table that has a column of type TEXT.

What I am doing is that, I am reading characters from a file, convert them into String object and then insert into this column.
The value of the String gets into the TEXT column.

The String object (roughly 4K characters) gets inserted successfully into the column and when I do a select, i could see the characters correctly stored in the table's column.

But, when I try to insert a very big String(12MB file read), it gets stored as ??? into the table's column.

Please help me.

There aren't many rules that you need to worry about here on the Ranch, but one that we take very seriously regards the use of proper names. Please take a look at the JavaRanch Naming Policy and adjust your display name to match it.

In particular, your display name must be a first and a last name separated by a space character, and must not be obviously fictitious.

Thanks!
