Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: BLOB Data Type
*B*inary *L*arge *Ob*ject is a datatype that lets you hold raw binary data
upto 4GB (or more if you are on 10g). for example I could store a PDF or a
MS Word file in a blob column then define that as a *long raw* datatype on
Forms and use that to display stored document in oracle forms.
