Description

When LSTRLOB=1, User Language programs running in Model 204 version V7R2 or later can use normal field reference syntax for Lob fields. Otherwise (LSTRLOB=0), access to Lob fields must use the Buffer syntax.

The default value of LSTRLOB is 1. LSTRLOB has no effect for Model 204 version V7R1.

The "normal field reference syntax" applies to all uses of a BLOB or CLOB field name except for the Note statement.

The types of allowed "normal field references" are shown in the following table, which assumes that field LOB has the BLOB or CLOB attribute:

Type of referenceExamples
Field updates

store record
LOB = 'initial value'
end store

Note that the Store Record and Add statements, when using normal field reference syntax as above, do not have a provision for the Reserve clause which is available on the Buffer syntax.
