Hei Eyvind,

Blob=binary, jpg=binary, xml=NOT binary. You are trying to accomplish something which was never intended to work!

>Try the following:
>
>

>Create Cursor curTest (image blob)
>Append Blank
>*!* Select a jpg file from your harddrive here:
>Replace image with FileToStr(GetFile())
>?CursorToXML("curTest", "lcTest", 1, 0, 0, "1")
>?XMLToCursor(lcTest, "curTest2")
>

>
>Observe that after the cursor has been translated to xml and back, the image field is no longer a BLOB, but a MEMO field.
