Yes thats it.

Ok - one last question.
My Script looks like this and actually i can run it only on the server (so i have to 
copy all my data to the server each time i want to update my blobs):

 INSERT INTO tablexy (BLOBFIELD) VALUES (lo_import('BLOBFILE')).

Now we know if I want to upload a clientfile I have to use \lo_import BUT i cant use 
this inside the script.

 INSERT INTO  tablexy (BLOBFIELD) VALUES (\lo_import('BLOBFILE')). is not possible 
because \lo_import is a unknown command for the server.

So I have to do 2 steps manually in psql:

 \lo_import(ClientFile) -> Returns OID

 INSERT INTO tablexy (BLOBFIELD) VALUES (Returned OID)

Is there a way to do this automatically?
Means my Clientside script should upload a local file (from the same computer where 
the script is executed) to the server and insert this file in a special table 
automatically.

Thanks
