Hi All,

When i query table which contains BLOB datatype i get garbage value.
for ex: in table the value is "COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Blob@6c4edccd", but in WebFocus query output i get "2008-10-28-22-43-37t065733s000001bin".
Any idea how to read or fetch BLOB datatype value?

I have a report in which one of the column has hyperlinks to open attachments. Attachments can be in excel, pdf or text format. BLOB object datavalue acts as a pointer to open the attachment when user clicks on the hyperlink in respective format in new window.
Can anyone help me to achieve this functionality?

Thanks in advance,
Chaitra
