<DIV>Hi Trixi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for your input. I will do some testing with the blob field also.
I’ve always used a blob field with other databases. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I was wondering if one might compress better than the others or lessen the
risk of corruption.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best Regards,</DIV>

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