I may be sharing my ignorance, but it seems that a click (or two) on the memo field containg binary data should present the data in its intended format. I have used APPEND GENERAL to stash worksheets in memo (or general?) fields. When I clicked on the memo field, OLE (i think) opened the sheet in the application format.

Is there a difference between APPEND GENERAL and REPLACE as they relate to managing binary data?

I am looking for a URL regarding GETCHUNK. It was offered a a solution to to move binary data, through ADO, and stash it in a memo field.
