I have a simple thing which I want to do, yet is so frustrating in attempting and completing. I just want to take some value such as this:
'a value with
line breaks'
And insert it into a CLOB
field and retain the line breaks in DB2. Something like this statement
insert into some_table (the_clob_field) VALUES('a value with
line breaks');
causes a value with line breaks
to be inserted.
Another alternative is
insert into some_table (the_clob_field) VALUES('a value with ' || chr(10)
||'line breaks');
