The steps are going to be:
1. recover the blob from database
2. create a stream that reads the contents of the blob
3. feed the stream to a parser to create a DOM (Document Object Model) of the document in memory
4. modify the DOM
5. serialize the DOM back to text
6. store the modified text in database
How far have you gotten?
How familiar are you with Java's XML related library?
