The database itself might be able to handle the size with no problem, but sometimes the calling service or the drivers that pass the data do not. That's why I suggested using cfqueryparam to see if that resolves your issue. In fact, in our case, we were having problems with truncated strings when doing sa select from the database for our CLOB field, and once we switched to cf_sql_longvarchar, all was fine. By your last sentence, are you saying that you resolved the issue?
