Converting OLE objects

Hello-
I have OLE objects (mostly word and excel) stored in a field in an Oracle
database. I need to extract them and save them as files on the filesystem
(MS Word and MS Excel files).
I used the DBI module to query the database and get the OLE into a scalar
variable - I read through the Win32::OLE module but didn't get a clue on how
to convert data stored in a variable and save as a file.
Maybe there is a better approach to what I need to do.

I seek advice from the experts or some examples if any of you have stumbled
with similar needs.

Thanks in advance and appreciate all your help,

Pradeep
