SQL-Statement is too long - Mailing list pgsql-jdbc

Hi,

I'm using Postgesql 7.0.3-8 and the postgresql-jdbc2.jar to talk to the
databse from within Java. I tried to write a quite long text into a TEXT
column, and got the following SQLExcpetion:  The SQL Statement is too
long - INSERT INTO ...

A file which contains the text has a size of 9244 byte. Are there any
restriction for the length of a TEXT column.

Thank you for any response.

Erwin
