How to display a Microsoft Word document stored in a table BLOB column?

user49914949919675123Feb 2 2010 — edited Jul 13 2010
Hi,

I have a table which has a BLOB column called DOC_BLOB.

I load a Microsoft (MS) Word document (using DBMS_LOB package) into this field.

Now I want to show this MS document in a Form (10g).

How can I do this?

Can I show it just like any other text item (with sufficient width X height) or can it be shown only by running MS Word externally and supplying the BLOB field as an input to the MS Word using WebUtil or Ole2?

Do I have to use WebUtil? If so how? Sample code would be great.

Is it recommended to use the 10g Forms OLE2 package? If possible how? Sample code would be great.

Thanks & Regards,
Channa.
