Justin,
Can you explain the purpose of these files?
When you say "My direction is to bring the files in as part of the
stored procedure call" does that mean the caller must read the entire
file into memory and pass the whole thing as a parameter? That sounds
ungainly to me unless these are very small files... for example, if
they are 1mb files, every time it makes a stored procedure call, it'd
read 1mb into memory, then transfer than 1mb over the network (as part
of the call), then it'd be in memory in the server... Is that really
ideal? But then, I think to myself, maybe there's a good reason for
that, etc... it's just hard to envision without understanding how these
files are used.

I have an RPGLE program exposed as a DB2 stored procedure. In my
RPGLE code, I go out via QNTC and access files on a Windows share.
Our Windows team is shutting down that share so I need another way
to get those files. My direction is to bring the files in as part
of the stored procedure call. The files are either text or binary
(ZIP files). Stored procedures allow a data type of BLOB, but the
RPGLE compiler says I can't have BLOB's as parameters.
