here r two possiblities: 1. i have a vague recollection of doing this by having a String property in my java class, letting hibernate generate the schema and then manually changing the column type in the database (sapdb in this case) from varchar to the appropriate clob type. this wasn't much of hassle as i did the schema creation via ant - first called hibernate's schema export tool and then ran a sql script to fix the column type. 2. use a blob (as far as hibernate is concerned). make a bogus getter and setter that uses a byte[] that reads and writes too your String field and tell hibernate about this and not your real getter and setter. brad ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Get the new Palm Tungsten T handheld.
