Is it possible to update a recordset with only adding text to the end of a longblob entry. Instead of showing the whole diary entry a little 10 character text field will submit to add on to the end of an alreadly existing paragraph.

Thanks
G.

Sure can just basically how i would do it. Retrieve, the longblob entry from your table for e.g.
<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>
$select = mysql_query("select fieldname from tablename where id = ".$id);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($select);

$addtoblob = $row['fieldname']." ".$newblob;

$update = mysql_query("update tablename set fieldname = '$addtoblob' where id = ".$id);
</font id=code></pre id=code>
And thats it.
