>Entirely correct. Until VFP9, where now we can use BLOB type fields to store binaries. So now we CAN store images in DBFs if we want. Or we can keep doing it the previous way, e.g. storing only the path+filename reference, which is good advice.

Lemme see - would that store the document without the overhead required for the General field? What would be the difference between a BLOB and a memo binary, which also exists in earlier versions?
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
