Can Crystal interpret blobs though some kind of algorithm to fancy manipulation

Can Crystal can read blob and parse out text/numbers, etc. Maybe that explaines it better.
Thanks

If you have CR 9 or later, then yes, you can interrogate the field in a formula.

If you have CR 8.5 or earlier, you'd have to do this on the database side, either by using a SQL Expression Field, or a View or stored procedure.

I have CR9. Can you show me example of the formula for this?

Can you supply a sample of what the field might hold, as well as what you're trying to extract?
