Does anyone know of a way to reverse encryption on attachments?

[John VanBruggen]

I am looking for a way to remove encryption context from a large number of attachments in relation to a specific table.

Is there a way to do this?   I see scripts in the WIKI that show how to encrypt en mass but nothing for removing encryption.

Thanks in advance.

I wrote a script to print out all functions for a given object.

Unfortunately parameter names are inaccessible.

Sounds like a cool script.

you can't removet the encryption in sys_attachment table. Actually, all the attachments are BASE64 encoded   you can read them and get the data pragmatically but can't rempove the encyption.

Do you have a source for this?   One that says 'Once encrypted always encrypted"?

I would still like to understand the business requirement for this...
