Paul, 

thank you very much for the info... but it doesn't resolve my problem.

I understand how I can use a blob to add a image to a database row.

However, my problem is that I have to be able to make annotations to the image 
and then save it in the BLOB.

As far as I can see, the Rbeditor doesn't allow to add text/drawings to an 
image and then save it.

Or am I missing something ?

Hi, 

 

I want to put an editable image on a form.

 

In Access I could put an OLE embedded bound image field, based on a particular 
image.

On double-click the image opens in e.g. Photodraw/paint, I can edit the image, 
make annotations and then save it as the OLE embedded image in the database, 
without altering the original image.

 

How do I do this in R:base ?

 

Do I use a varbit BLOB ? But the editor doesn't allow annotations......

 

Thanks again for any help....
