>Main reason I've seen is images take up a lot of space and you run the risk of hitting the 2 gig limit for VFP.

Ok. I do very little with images. Generally small stuff like country flags for a Country pick-combo or other trivial usage. If you had to deal with big BMPs or RAW image camera files or ome such I would then just save them on disk to avoid hitting the limit.

My question was mainly directed at what I thought Einar was confusing BLOB with General fields.
