Thank you Peter. It is similar as you have pointed out. I was using a method for reading and writing Bitmap to the TBlobfield. I was under the impression that in the case of Bitmaps the header is always at 78 bytes. However I found that when I programmatically insert a bitmap into the TBlobfield the header could be anywhere. So I had to write a method to locate it at run time. Now it works.
