   (VAR)BINARY or BLOB depending on length estimation.

I have found what I needed.  
 

 Sorry for the bother...
 

 I was having trouble finding a way top convert the array into a string, which 
led me to believe I would have to store it in array format.
 

 I eventually found the correct solution after going through several incorrect 
ones. I couldn't remember that all I needed was to use the Base64 conversion...

[firebird-support] Storing a byte array in Firebird

[blackfalconsoftw...@outlook.com [firebird-support]]

Hello...
 

 I need to store a byte array for the security aspect of the application I am 
developing.
 

 Would you simply store it in a field defined with the BLOB type or use the 
ARRAY type if one knew the length of the array?
 

 Thank you...
