>Assuming you're talking about image field at the SQL Server, query to image field in the SQL Server returns result with General field. However, it is quite hard to work with and maintain general fields in application. They're also quite slow and not portable, not reliable etc.

Vlad,
The image is from an ADO Records set. I'm trying to
SQL Pict -> ADO ADLONGVARBINARY - > to VFP (Cursor/DBF) General or Picture Field

With SQL;
for ex: SQLEXEC(handle,[SELECT * FROM CATEGORIES],[MyCusrsor])
The SQL Pict translates to a General FIeld in the VFP CUrsor

But in ADO it becomes a ADLONGVARBINARY type: The ADO image has an ALEN() (does that mean its an array?)
There a GetChunk method. But the Error (NOT CHATACTER DATA, or something similar error) occurs when APPEND GENEERAL is issued.

I will check the documents. Thanks
