pictures stoed in v2 database

[Barry G. Sumpter]

Hi Robert,

I don't work with rev applications.

I've only been using Valentina for the past 4 days.
I'm finding the Valentina support site very hard to follow.

As a rule I DON'T store anything but alpha and numeric variations of text in
my database. 
i.e. I never store any kind of graphic in a database.
I store only the folder path to pictures in the database and use coding to
manipulate the picture.

hth

All the best,
Barry G. Sumpter

Subject: pictures stoed in v2 database

I have stored some pictures in my valentina 2 database I would like to be
able to display then within my rev application in a image fld

 

I tried this 

 

    put "SELECT * FROM pictures WHERE pictures.name= 'ctgFork01';" into
theSQL

    put revQueryDatabase(dbID, theSQL) into curID

     put revDatabaseColumnNamed(curID,"picture") into ctg1

     put ctg1 into image "ctg1"

 

but this just returns ctg1 as a number?

 

Thanks

Rob
