[Gambas-user] Converting a Blob into a picture

[rolf]

Hi Gambas Hackers,

I would like to ask everybody, how can a blob result from a database query, 
which is a string, converted into a picture (i.e. how can I add the converted 
values to the data area of a picture class)? 

Is there a function for octal number to integer conversion (the help 
on "conversion functions" in 1.9.44 does not exists or can't be found)?

Many thanks for your help

Rolf
