So, you're storing varbinary(max) field in SQL Server and retrieve with simple SELECT ... by using two extra commands right before, correct?

And then how exactly you're showing this field and updating? We're retrieving the data with SQL Pass Through, but by setting several properties we're manipulating with the record as as in a remote view.

Thanks in advance.
