All is well except that the Blob sub type 0 field (which I use as a Memo in regular Remote Views successfully) comes in the SQLPT as a General field. With this I am not able to replace a Memo field (which is Blob Sub Type 0) in the RV as data type mismatches.

Practically it is not feasible.

Solutions:
- upgrade to VFP9SP1
- try, within the Firebird's select, to convert the Blob into a Text
