If it goes 4000 chars, you will need to save it as blob in oracle.
The oracle driver supports blob datatype.

I'm not certain about a max in CF but I'm relatively sure there is a max in
ORACLE. If I recall it's 4000 characters.
Is your textarea returning more than that? That might be it.

Subject: max variable length
anyone know what the maximum length of a CFML variable is?
I'm having problems inserting data from a textarea formfield into oracle
using the ODBC drivers. Running CF 4.5.2 on apache/redhat. I know netscape
restricts the number of characters that can go into a textarea, but I'm
using IE and I have checked the received header when posting from IE and
there do not appear to be any restrictions imposed by IE. My next suspect
is the max size of a CF variable.
Thanks
Mark
