You have not said what technology (if any) you are using within Delphi to connect to PostgreSQL. The cheap option is to use: PostgreSQL ODBC driver + Microsoft OLEDB Provider for ODBC Databases + ADO components (which come with Delphi if you're lucky). However, a quick search on google for PostgreSQL+Delphi soon convinced me that microOLAP at http://www.microolap.com/products/connectivity/postgresdac/ have already got this all sewn up with their PostgresDAC Delphi components. Of /particular/ interest to you in their blurb on the above web page are the following statements: * full support of the BLOB fields; * TDBImageEx component for JPEG images support included in the package for free (with sources); I'd go with the microOLAP alternative myself (in your situation) because getting it done as quickly and easily as possible is the objective. They have Free Trial download, and Education Licensing too if you look hard enough.
