Is there a method yet to import and export IFS files from LOB type columns in an SQL table, just using SQL? I've seen methods to transfer both ways using RPG and embedded SQL. I'd hoped that maybe something like this was possible with the newish IFS_WRITE_BINARY() procedure, but, the "line" data doesn't mention that it would accept a LOB type value.
