Hi,

I am using Syabse::DBD 1.02. Currently we are storing images and text files in a Sybase TEXT column after converting to Hexadecimal. The data is doubled in storage size due to the conversion. We are having db space issues due to that.

I am trying to explore other alternatives. My question is, if I use IMAGE datatype in SYBASE to store the text/image files instead of TEXT - which DBD::Sybase version do I need to use? Also will that give me any space benefit improvement - since the data stored in the IMAGE column in Sybase is still in hexadecimal (correct me if I am assuming something wrong here).

Thanks,

Anima.
