Update a BLOB column

PhilMan2Feb 25 2014 — edited Feb 25 2014

Hello,

I have Oracle XE 11.2.0 loaded on a Windows server.  It works fine.  I use Apex 4.1 on that sever as well.

In a table I have a column (LIST_FILE) which contains the name of a file, and does not include the file's extension.  I recently added a BLOB column (LIST_PDF) to that table.

I'd like to create SQL to update each row in that table by inserting the PDF file into the blob.  For each row in the table, there exists a file starting with the value in LIST_FILE and appended with a period and PDF (.PDF).  File1.PDF, File2,PDF, etc.  The windows directory containing the PDF's can be moved anywhere on the windows server.

How do I construct the SQL to update the BLOB column?

Thanks for your help.
