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.
