Sorry, my question was not clear enough... I need to open a file and store the contents into the BLOB field. Some of the files are images and some are document templates. Can I do that using just SQL commands from a command line?

BLOB literals are given as hex strings, with a proceeding 'X'. For example: X'deadbeef' is a 4-byte BLOB. You would use it like this: INSERT INTO table ( b_col ) VALUES ( X'deadbeef' ); More info: http://sqlite.org/lang_expr.html -j -- Jay A.
