Hi,
How to store figures in 8i. (BLOB/ BFILE/ RAW). Can anybody give the procedure for that.
Also can somebody help me to access pictures stored in 8i database through Visual Basic 6.
Thank You.

Have a look in the Oracle8i Application Developer's Guide - Large Objects (LOBs):

You could use Oracle Objects for OLE (OO4O), a Windows-based product included with Oracle8i Client for Windows NT. You can make changes to a LOB via OO4O by using one of the following objects interfaces:
OraBlob: methods for performing operations on BLOB datatypes in the database
OraClob: methods for performing operations on CLOB datatypes in the database
OraBFile: methods for performing operations on BFILE data stored in operating system files.

Alternatively you might try invoking PL/SQL procedures from the DBMS_LOB package through ODBC.
