Yes, your errors are related. There are knowledge base articles on
Allaire's site on how to work with strings longer than 4k. They won't help
you with client variables unless Allaire rewrites that piece of code to use
the workarounds.

Curious, I am.
Is the error that you're getting:
Oracle Error Code = 1704
ORA-01704: string literal too long
I ask because I'm working with Spectra on an Oracle db and that error is
beginning to be a big bug in my hide. I'd like to know if your problems and
mine might be related.
