Sybase 'TEXT' datatype

Question

i am trying to update one of the sybase table which has 'TEXT' datatype for one of the column,
In general how do we query this 'TEXT' datatype in Java i.,e Casting object, Hope this is not a String ?
Any help with the code to retrieve this 'TEXT' field is appreciated,
Thanks
Mathew

I am doing this below ...
public int updateCustomSQL(String headerInfo,String upString,String caseObjId) throws DAOException
        String methodName = "queryUpdateCustomSQL";
        LogMgr.debug(this.getClass(),methodName,"you are in queryUpdateCustomSQL");
        ResultSet rst;
        int rowsReturned = 0;
        LogMgr.debug(this.getClass(), methodName, "query string obtained =" + headerInfo.toString());
        try
            getConnection();
            LogMgr.debug(this.getClass(), methodName, "headerInfo obtained =" + headerInfo);
            PreparedStatement pstmt1 = conn.prepareStatement(
            "SELECT objid,case_history as caseHistory FROM table_case WHERE objid = ?");
            int numericCaseId = new Integer(caseObjId).intValue();
            pstmt1.setInt(1,numericCaseId);
            rst = pstmt1.executeQuery();
            java.sql.Clob clob = null;
            while (rst.next()) {
                //clob = rst.getClob("case_history");
            if(clob != null){
            long length = clob.length();
            LogMgr.debug(this.getClass(),methodName,"length of the clob =" + length);
            clob.setString(length + 1,headerInfo);
            PreparedStatement pstmt2 = conn
                        .prepareStatement("UPDATE table_case SET case_history = ? WHERE objid = ?");
            pstmt2.setClob(1,clob);
            pstmt2.setInt(2,new Integer(caseObjId).intValue());
            rowsReturned = pstmt2.executeUpdate();
        catch (Exception ex)
            LogMgr.debug(this.getClass(), methodName, "exception occurred while updating =" + ex.toString());
        LogMgr.debug(this.getClass(), methodName, "rows returned =" + rowsReturned);
        return rowsReturned;
    }The method com.sybase.jdbc2.jdbc.SybResultSet.getClob(String) is not supported and should not be called.
let me know if i can use any other method instead of getClob()
Thanks
