The Watcom SQL cast function can be used to convert a long binary (BLOb or "Binary Large Object") column to char (string) format. This is helpful when a BLOb column is sometimes used to store binary data, and sometimes string data, and you need to show the string data in a PowerBuilder DataWindow.
It's a lot easier to code
select cast ( column_name as char ) from table_name
than it is to call SelectBlob().
