IBM Database Add-Ins for Visual Studio

Changing BLOB Data in Tables and Views

If a table or view in your IBM database is defined with one or more columns of data type BLOB, you can use the IBM® Data Designer to change BLOB data in rows of the table or view.

Requirement:  The IBM database table or view must be defined with one or more columns of data type BLOB.

To change BLOB data in a table or view:

  1. Retrieve the data from the table or view.
  2. In the Result Data section of the designer, click the cell of the grid in which you want to change the BLOB data, and then click Ellipsis button.

    The BLOB Visualizer window opens.

  3. Click Open File, and then browse to and select the file that contains the BLOB data to use in the cell.

    The contents of the file that you select are displayed in the Value field.

  4. Click OK in the BLOB Visualizer window.
  5. In the Data view of the designer, save the data.
