Populate the table with text search data
This example populates the CLOB column of the reports table
with data from the operating system file /local0/excal/dbms.txt by
using the FileToCLOB() smart large object function.
INSERT INTO reports (doc_no, author, title, abstract)
VALUES(
1,
'C.J. Date',
'Introduction to Database Systems',
FileToCLOB ('/local0/excal/dbms.txt', 'client')
);
You can also populate a CLOB column with data from another CLOB column in the database by using the LOCopy() smart large object function.
