>Correct - by using a General field , you've given up direct access to the field content, relying instead on the services provided by the application handling the general field for VFP. If you want to access the content without relying on the server, you'd need to store the binary bitmap data in a memo field and extract it to a file for the API call to reference.

100% accurate. But what if I want to ask the server to print the content of the general field instead of displaying it on the screen? The server application (paintbrush) certainly can do it, but how can I use this service? I thought that I can relly on the Object property of OleBound control, but the Object property is actually NULL...
