I don't have any samples on hand and I don't have time these days to put one
together real quick considering the backlog I have on more critical things.

If you look in the source code you will see how I do it. There are some
routines that are generic that should help you if you trace things through
and dissect it all.

Study the TIB_Column and TIB_BlobColumn classes and this should help a lot.
There are also some blob related methods/functions in the IB_Session.pas
unit.
