I'm retrieving images from a SQLServer database in BLOB
format. When I use the Database Results wizard the images
are displayed as text [#BINARY#] instead of the images.

What do I have to do to display the database info as
pictures?

Thank you.

Hi,

It is highly recommended that images be stored outside of the database and
that the database contain a link to the stored images location.
