Hi, I inherited a db which is access front end and SQL back end and I am having trouble getting what I think is a blob to display in an OLE field.
I am rather new at this so please forgive if I get it wrong. One table has a field which holds the shape name as text and then a varbinary(2000) data type field, this I assume holds the blob. within the field I can see this. <Binary data>. I need to bring this up to a form to display the value that is in the field. I am able to access all the data in the fields in this table but cannot get this to display. I created an auto form which did not display. Basically in the table it would say "Round" and then in the next field have a graphic image that showed a round.
All help greatefully accepted as I have tried searching and can't really find anything specific.
Thanks
