-----Original Message----- From: [email protected] on behalf of Rob Kennedy ... If you're sure the value has type TBar, then use a function-style type-cast:
TBlobStream.Create(TBlobField(Table1.Fields[x]), bmRead) If you would like the program to confirm at run time that the value has the intended type, then use a checked type-cast: TBlobStream.Create(Table1.Fields[x] as TBlobField, bmRead) I recommend the latter. I also recommend giving your variables better names, such as SourceTable and DestTable, so nobody needs to remember whether 1 or 2 is the thing you're copying. >>>>>> Thanks for the suggestions!...:-) I was unable to use the second one but the first one worked fine. I will also change the Table names. This utility is a rush job and I was under the gun to do a proof of concept. Thanks again! Tom Nesler
