What is the LOB file format?
A file with the .LOB extension is a file known as IBM DB2 LOBFILE. It belongs to the Settings Files category. This format is associated with IBM.
The reliable way to open a .LOB file is with software that recognises this exact format, rather than guessing from the file name. If you are not sure what created a file, our file identifier can read its first bytes and name the real format, even when the file has been renamed.
We are still gathering the list of programs that open .LOB files. A fully verified, hand-written description of this format is being prepared; until then, the details on this page are drawn directly from our database.
