Benajam,
If you know it you can use Perl, with something like the code below which
will insert a string containing the value
I_inserted_a_long_abcd1234567890qweerrtrtyyuuiiioooooooooooppppppp
concatenated a 100000 times, and replace $long_field with your own data or
do a loop to read it in from a file.
Saj
#!/usr/bin/perl
#
use strict;
use DBI;
$|=1;
my $long_field =
"I_inserted_a_long_abcd1234567890qweerrtrtyyuuiiiooooooooooop
pppppp"x100000;
my $dbi_driver = 'DBI:Oracle:';
my $connstr = 'username';
my $pw = 'password';
my $dbh = DBI->connect($dbi_driver, $connstr, $pw) ||
die "Unable to Connect:\n".$DBI::errstr;
my $mysql = qq { insert into qxl.lobtest(col1)
values (?) } ;
my $sth = $dbh->prepare( $mysql );
$sth->bind_param( 1, $long_field );
$sth->execute;
$sth->finish;
$dbh->disconnect;
