How to use setClob() in PreparedStatement

[Nikhil]

Here are the info:
1) I have a String
2) I want to insert a record in a table with the String in a column whose
datatype is CLOB.
3) I would like to use setClob() method of the preparedstatement.

So my question is how to create a Clob object from this String so that I
can use setClob() method.

Thanks in advance,
Nikhil
