Hi -
I'm brand new to this posting but I have a real problem, using
PowerBuilder 10.5.
I have an oracle table with a BLOB column defined. Basically I'm
using it to store PDF's in the database, 1 record per file stored.
It's trivial enough to pull a file from the network into a table/BLOB
column through PB in the PowerScript using FileReadEx / Insert
table> / UpdateBlob. Boom, the record is created and the PDF is
stored as a BLOB. But now what!!?? I have a window that allows the
users to see these records I've created, and I want them to be able to
click on the row and open the BLOB as the original PDF in Adobe within
my PB application. But I can't figure out how to do it! When I try
to add the BLOB column into my select, I get the error message
"SELECT column has unsupported datatype"...
