Bernd,

We too have gotten the "Orphaned Blob" error for several years now. I even
dedicated some time a few years ago to ask about this at a 4D Kitchen
session at the summit. A compact or repair will clean this up at least
temporarily.

Is there a chance that you once had a blob field that was later converted to
another type? If my understanding is correct this can lead to orphan blobs
when the data in that converted field is changed, particularly if the blob
was stored outside the datafile. I read somewhere, perhaps the KB, that if
you change the type of a blob or picture field you should clear out the
field before the change is made in the structure.

Regards,
Scott Wirth
