How to get the size of a BLOB column

Hi,

I am looking for the Oracle equivalent of the MSSQL's DATALENGTH function.

in mssql if I do a SELECT DATALENGTH(blobcolumn) from TABLENAME I get back a list of sizes of those BLOBs.

How would I do something similar in ORACLE?

any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks.
