BLOB because that is where mod_plsql puts files that are uploaded, even = plain text files. Does it matter, i.e. will it help solve my problem if = I copy the BLOB to a CLOB? I rather think not.

if it is TEXT, why can't you use CLOB?? Why BLOB??

If it is a column, then use dbms_lob subprograms to manipulate the =3D contents ... it will be much easier that way.
