[Zope] Newbie question - blob fields

Can anoyone answer this? I know I posted the other day, and I'm sorry for 
re-posting, but if anyone can help I'd be very grateful! Thanks
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I am quite new to Zope, and I am attempting to implement a Zope application 
connecting to an existing Interbase database (using Kinterbasdb).

I don't seem to have many problems, but do have one with a BLOB field in the 
database (subtype text). Reading from it is not a problem, but attempting to 
write to it I get an error
(-413, 'execute.isc_dsql_execute: conversion error from string "BLOB". '). I 
have tried various changes to the type of the input field, and to the insert 
SQL, but I've had no luck.

I have read various postings here and there with similar questions. I seem 
to get the idea that I can't do this. Can anyone confirm this or preferably 
explain how wrong I am and why!

Thanks in advance,

Ashley
