 |  | It is not necessary to set the PermDBSize global parameter to 128K, you can leave this as the default of 64K, and then set each table
independently, using the blocksize variable. |  | 
 
 
 
 But the maximum row length is still 64K, because the row length field in the physical row layout is a word... James, the only solution is to slice BLOBs in chunks of 64KB.  Look at the CLI Developer's kit manual. And on NT there's a VB Blob Sample
Application in ...\Teradata Client\blobsamp. AFAIK BLOBs are announced for V2R5.1, if you want to wait for maybe one year ;-)
