Using MySQL and ASP

I have a small application where the users want to be able to add (and view later) text over time to the client record. Probably the max needed would be 5K or so. My book indicates what I need is a Blob, Text which has a Max size of 64K. Questions:

a.) How do I add it to an existing table (command Line)?
b.) How do I enter new data on a form page?
c.) How do I show existing data in a form page?

Having never used Blobs I am at a total Loss.

Thanks in advance.
