insert CLOB into MS SQL Server 2K

[Dave Bosky]

I have a large textarea field in a form field called details.

I get the textarea field value like so:
String details= request.getParameter("details");

But I need to convert the string datatype to CLOB datatype
so I can insert the data into a CLOB field.

Can I cast this somehow?

Thanks,
Dave

For CLOB/ BLOB data-type you need to open stream of the data-typoes and write the information through the stream. As I known, direct casting is not possible through API level.

Could you provide a simple example of creating the required stream?

Thanks,
