Storing Image Data

[Johnny Harris]

Hi Trixi,

Thanks for your input. I will do some testing with the blob field also. I’ve always used a blob field with other databases. 

I was wondering if one might compress better than the others or lessen the risk of corruption.

Best Regards,
Johnny

Hi, 

what’s wrong with blobs?

When I read

I would say that blobs sound far better. Picts are long dead on the Mac.

  I'm looking at storing a large amount of images in VServer. I'm wondering if it would be best to store them as a string in a VText field or use the VPicture field.

  Would anyone have any advice on storing images?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen/Regards
