OCI8 mode

[rshenthan]

Good Morning:

I am running PL.SQL devloper 5.0.3 on my windows XP machine. It says that its using Oracle 8 version of OCI.
However, I am getting the following run time error when I tried to select data from a CLOB field in Oracle.

"A query with LOB's requires OCI8 mode, but OCI7 mode is used."

Any thoughts?

Note:
My colleague is running 5.1.0.654 and also experiencing the same issue.

thx
RS

Could it be that you are using Oracle10g? You will need to upgrade to 5.1.6 for Oracle10g compatibility.
