I have created an Access database with a field called FileData which is of the type OLE Object. I then put an exe into the field using Access.

My ASP code should then download the file using this code:

Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.BinaryWrite objRS("FileData")

The code displays the normal download dialog and seems to download the file correctly. However, when the file is downloaded it does not have the correct icon nor will it run.

Any ideas?
