I am able to write CLOB data type on to the Oracle database. I would like to know how to read CLOB data type from database because the text buffer size in coldfusion is restricted to 64000 bytes. Please help me with your ideas.
Thanks in advance.

In the CF administrator enable the "CLOB" checkbox.

Can you tell me where I can locate the "CLOB" checkbox in the CFADMIN window?
Thank you, Balaji

Select Show Advanced Settings for your datasource, and you should see select boxes that look something like this:

CLOB -- Enable long text retrieval (CLOB).
BLOB -- Enable binary large object retrieval (BLOB).
Long Text Buffer (chr) 64000
Blob Buffer(bytes) 64000

Select CLOB and/or BLOB, whatever is applicable.
