Hi, like Berend, I also store my PDFs in text columns, but I usually use base64 encoding. AFAICS this has the big advantage versus BLOBs that I do not need to care about backup issues. The disadvantage of course is a bigger database (encoding inflates about 30%), so if you have lots and lots of pictures, you might want to use an other method. Another (small) disadvantage is that one has to encode/decode the binary files before storing/after retreiving. Regards, Frank.
