You'll need to post more code. Although you do have to use LongReadLen in this situation, this is not why you are getting errors.Post more code:-) Ilya -----Original Message----- From: Michael Ragsdale To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11/15/02 2:32 PM Subject: LongReadLen use I have a query that is pulling a LONG field from an Oracle DB. I received the following error: illegal use of LONG datatype ..... I found information on LongReadLen in the cheetah book, but I'm still a bit confused as to the syntax or exactly how to implement the attribute. After searching Google, I found the following examples but none of them are working: my $dbh = DBI->connect($data_source,"foo","bar",{LongReadLen => 4000}) $dbh->LongReadLen(4000); $dbh->{LongReadLen} = 4000; The first two don't change the error message at all. The third gives me the following message: Can't locate object method "LongReadLen" via package "DBI:db" (perhaps you forgot to load "DBI::db"?) Just in case it's needed.... Oracle 8.1.7 Perl 5.6.1 DBI 1.28 DBD::Oracle 1.6 Any suggestions? -Mike
