Tedd,
SELECT OCTET_LENGTH(blob_field)/1024 FROM tablename will give you the
sizes in KBs. Watch out for NULLs though - that is - if the BLOB field
is NULL.
Best,
Dev

Hi:
I have a table that has BLOB fields.
I want to determine programmatically (hopefully via a SQL query)
what's the size of data contained in these BLOB fields -- how do I do
that?
For example, I have a record that contains an image in a BLOB field
and phpMyAdmin shows that the field is holding 11,3KB of data. Is
there a way to determine that size besides inspecting the record via
phpMyAdmin?
Thanks,
tedd
