I do not remember reading your original post and since you did not re- post it I will suggest you look into the dbms_raw package. It provides several functions for working with raw data.

If you are on version 8 you should switch to using LOB's instead of raw and see the dbms_lob package which provides I/O routines to read and write binary and character large object values.

I hope this helps you.
