I don't know how many times I read similar posts, about Genearl fields and some info in them.
Tore will support me :-)))

DO NOT USE GENERAL FIELDS!

You asking for trouble with them. Imagine what will happens if your table become corupted.
Also you will reach 2GB limit very soon.
Save only path to that file in Char or Memo field. If your application woks in shared environment you easily can copy user choosen documents to some folder where all users of your application have access.
