Thanks much for the reply.
I streamed out the data and stored in a sample ppt file, unfortunately
powerpoint could not open it. I searched further on the net and now think that,
this is happening becuase we are using jdbc-odbc bridge to retrieve data,
(oracle driver is not yet installed for our oracle db) which does not support
reading such binary stream, or blob from database.
thanks again.

I can only suggest streaming the data out of the database and onto disk,
and checking from there (both HSLF and PowerPoint)
It's possible that the database ole storage is actually missing of part of
the ole2 metadata. The exception you got is triggered by POIFS failing to
find a correct ole2 stream
