Does anyone have any experience of the above?

Oracle provide the DBMS_LOB package to import data into a blob using DBMS_LOB.readfromfile or somesuch, but they do not provide a means to write the data from a BLOB to a file.

Does DBMS_LOB allow me to read from a file on my client PC under windows 98? I've heard of a UTIL_LOB utility available unsupported from Oracle to export to a file, but will it work on windows 98 and client forms?
 
You need to use Pro*C and OCI to carry out. make a c file and complie as dll and use UTLLOBLIB/UTL_LOB.
