How to read excel file from BLOB column

edited May 11, 2012 9:08AM in PL/SQL (MOSC) 19 comments
Hi,
we have imported excel file through Oracle application express , where the file is placed in the oracle table"BLOB", then in pl/sql block by using dbms_lob package
try reading, which is giving error, but if the same excel file did save as .csv file then imported the same table in the "BLOB" column then using dbms_lob package pl/sql can able to read,

But why pl/sql using dbms_lob package couldn't able to read the BLOB column of the content excel file ????, is there any other way to read the excel file using pl/sql.

Howdy, Stranger!
