Re: LOB fields (was Re: is it possible to store a xslt file in DB2)

James

whichever way you do it, your object can be stored where you decide on the
IFS.

The references I created were just normal fields with a path to the IFS
object.

If you use the LOB facilities available in the database, the system can
create links to the IFS object, and can also protect the object so that it
can only be
accessed using the database reference, really depends on what your trying to
acheive, and how sophisticated you want the app to be

cheers
