    urgent : how to insert a record with BLOB

    I need to insert a record into a table having a BLOB data type . I want to insert a '*.bmp' image into that. I have tried as below from the sql prompt.

    'INSERT INTO MY_TABLE VALUES (1, BLOB_FILE('c:\WInnt','action.bmp');

    but it's giving an serror saying 'inconsistent data types' .
    Please can somebody help.
