I am trying to convert data from an Oracle table with one field with data of type LONGRAW using Access97.

I know for a fact that the data in this field are string. I have been trying to figure out ways to read this field in and converting them back to string. VBA do not have a binary data type.

I am new at using ODBC link tables from Orical and maybe looking for a solution where there exist none.

Many thanks ahead.
