Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to search blob fields in MySQL. I
have a MySQL DB and i am using PHP. I am storing Microsoft word files
in it. I am wondering if it is possible to somehow search through the
content of these words files.

Thanks

Yes, if they contain plain text.

Why in the DB and not as plain files?

Not with MySQL, since a .doc is usually a binary.
