Re: Loading GIF images into an Oracle table

Just create a form on this table with developer (Forms 6i fe.) define your blob / long raw column as an image type in your form and set desired parameters (crop, size, ...) then add a button on your form, in the when-button-pressed trigger put a call to read_image_file (with needed parameters (see online help) , then run the form, hit the button, save the record ... done !!

As easy as that ...
