If blob data is stored on varchar column, dbexport/import does not take care of the blob data. There is no indication about this in informix manual. Hence this utility can not be used until Informix Corporation rectify this utility. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know. Learn what you don't.
