How to display a Microsoft Word document stored in a table BLOB column?

Hi,
I have a table which has a BLOB column called DOC_BLOB.

I load a Microsoft (MS) Word document (using DBMS_LOB package) into this field.

Now I want to show this MS document in a Form (10g).

How can I do this?

Can I show it just like any other text item (with sufficient width X height) or can it be shown only by running MS Word externally and supplying the BLOB field as an input to the MS Word using WebUtil or Ole2?

Do I have to use WebUtil? If so how? Sample code would be great.

Howdy, Stranger!
