I am reading '<' from the DB into the input card. But when i switch on the backup and check it it is being read as '<<'. The field I am reading in the DB is of CLOB datatype. Please advise.

create a DB trace file and review your results there.  You'd want to turn it off later  for performace reasons but it might explain a little about what's happeningwith your result. 

Also, did you create your result field using the DBID?  If so confirm your settings when defining the tree.  If not try doing so and see what happens.
