Help!!! IT'S THE BLOB...

Does anyone out there ever retrieve BLOB's back OUT of their (Oracle) database? In casual conversation, it seems like a reasonable idea doesn't it? But why on earth is this such a monumental undertaking in real life? I think I would prefer battling the movie monster to struggling with Oracle's under-supported BLOB data type.

I'd like to use VB (preferably OO4O) to access a BLOB field (say a bitmap or other image file), and write it out to a file. Does anyone have any suggestions or examples they could share with me?

Thank you for any help you might have,
