Hi Craig

I have found this code on the Internet which you wrote to export a general field of type BMP to a BMP file:
LOCAL lcFileString
SELECT "MyTable"
COPY TO tmpTable FIELDS YourGeneralField NEXT 1
lcFileString=FILETOSTR("tmpTable.fpt")
ERASE "tmpTable.fpt"
ERASE "tmpTable.dbf"
lcFileString = RIGHT(lcFileString,LEN(lcFileString) - 599)
=STRTOFILE(lcFileString, "MyExport.bmp"
That is some interesting code. Do you know or does anyone knows if the same technique could be used to extract a DOC, XLS and PDF to preserve their intact format? Because, when we use the Object.SaveAs() property, in this case a Word file, the file that ends up being saved on the disk is way corrupted.
