>I have a table in Informix that has a BLOB column that contains PDF files in it. When I connect to it the field comes as general but when I try to view it (CTRL+PgDn) a message comes up saying that the "OLE object is invalid or corrupted". I verified the data and it is valid.


I never use General Fields, but just a SWAG, can you extract it to a file?
cFile = "< my BLOB General Field >"
cFileName = "filename.pdf"
STRTOFILE(cFile, cFileName)
