*Very* sketchy knowledge follows: I think that Access stores BLOBs (including, presumably, images) as a special data format which you have to read in chunks using some specific ADO code. I just threw "Access blob ado chunk" at Google and it threw up: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258038 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/103257 which might be useful. I'm just winging it, never done it myself. TJG _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
